I'm lost. For all of my full size Witness pistols over the years, I've purchased a 22 pound Wolff recoil spring. I tried one of mine in one of my new Stock 2 pistols. No go. Won't even rack. Same spring in my wonder finish full size works fine. I know the Stock 2 is a half inch shorter barrel, but it seems like the spring is too long and binding inside?
Don't they offer a shorter one for the non-longslide version?

I always purchase the 22 pound for "full size." Always figured the "long slide" was for the 6 6 inch barreled guns.
Either way. The "full size" doesn't work. At all. The compact spring would be too small.
Hmmm... What part number does the bag say?
I see these two:
X 49820
1
EAA WITNESS LONGSLIDE, XP RECOIL SPRING 20LB 7.89 7.89
X 49722
1
EAA WITNESS FULLSIZE, XP RECOIL SPRING 22LB 7.89 7.89
In the Longslide version they don't offer a 22lb. Maybe the 4.5" pistols take Fullsize?

Yeah, I always order the 49722. Works in my wonder finish pistols. Cannot even pull the slide back on my Stock 2. Makes no sense and I can't figure it out.
I would take it apart and try assembling again. I seem to recall an issue similar to this at some point.
