I believe the manual says to use the silver one. It is available on the FN website if you don’t have one.

Just spitballing here...
The 509M comes with a yellow spring. The original 509 comes with a silver spring The M slide and regular 509 are the same slide. The tactical slide is the same as the regular and M aside from the optic cut. I looked at the online manual and didn't see anything about the springs (may have missed it) but I recall the yellow spring was to be used when running a can or comp. But as I said, the M comes with the yellow spring so....I don't know. One other variable, I think the LS Edge comes with a yellow spring

If you're not gonna bother to read the instructions that came with the gun, why read what people here end up telling you after they read the instructions?
Or you could just do it like a true man. Shoot it with the spring that came in it. If it acts up, swap out to the other spring. |

If your gun cycles properly, you’re using the correct spring. I can remember which color came installed, but the alternative spring is for lower powered training ammunition

At least you answered my question without malice unlike the guy a few posts up who had to be the class clown. Again, thank you!
