I'll replace the trigger spring, striker spring, recoil spring and extractor spring before a pistol hits 5000 rounds.

Replace the firing pin spring, and while you've got it apart, make sure the firing pin channel is clean and completely free of lube. Also, make sure the firing pin safety allows the firing pin to move freely when it's disengaged.

I agree with previous posters it sounds like you need a spring overhaul.

It's most likely a worn recoil spring but it wouldn't hurt to replace all of them

If it were mine, I would change all of the springs, trigger spring, striker spring, RSA and slide lock spring. |

Have you ever detail stripped the slide and cleaned out the striker channel? If you go to a GSSF match, you can probably get the armorer there to replace all the springs for free.

Should do every 5K min. If not, you could do some other damage-!cracked locking blocks, ovaled out hole sin frame for pins...... |
