I used a 22lb rsa from NDZ Performance that I bought from them on eBay in my P80 / Glock 10mm. Will probably use the same in my Longslide 10mm that is waiting for a back ordered slide. I might try 24lbs though.
Originally I had an OEM Glock RSA in the P80, but it seemed too weak when I shot some Underwood through it. The gun still cycles with typical store bought 10mm ammo too.

I also swapped to a 22lb ISMI spring, stainless guide rod and gen 4 adapter from lone wolf dist. No problem shooting the hottest bear loads all the way down to softer target loads.

What weight is best? I am thinking about just going as heavy as can be at 24lbs.
Will that still cycle a 10mm round that is more similar to the almost .40 loads that are out there? |

I would go 22lbs. I have shot the heaviest underwood and buffalo bore loads without issue. I can’t say how the 24lb handles the lighter stuff but I can confirm the 22lb does. If I recall when I was doing research, the 22lb seemed to be the sweet spot for usability.

Once you have a steel guide rod assy, it only costs about 8 bucks to try a different ISMI spring.

Jager has the best assortment of RSA options for Glock.
If you go with a Wolff spring system, you can use a .270 rod. http://www.jagerproducts.com/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=35 |

What does the .270 rod afford me that the NDZ won’t?
I am completely new to this game. Never thought about upgrading this on any of my glocks until I wanted to start to play around with the 10mm. |

bump for info. I just want heavier springs for smaller 9mm while using suppressor. My 26 and 43 won't chamber next round when shooting suppressed.

Quote HistoryQuoted: What does the .270 rod afford me that the NDZ won’t? That's a good question. I just measured the NDZ rod and it's .250". Maybe the .270 rod adds a tiny amount of weight? |

Never thought about upgrading this on any of my glocks until I wanted to start to play around with the 10mm. ISMI spring is a "flat wire" spring. (I think NDZ uses ISMI springs) Wolff is a "round wire" spring. The flat wire takes up more "room". The round wire takes up less room, therefore the round wire spring can live on a larger diameter rod. Not that giant of a deal, but big is better, IMO. ETA An ISMI spring cannot fit onto a Wolff guide rod. |
