Searching for my first 10mm

While I was at it I replaced the mainspring with a 26lb

A-ha. Please school me on the benefits of a stronger mainspring. I'm ignorant.

I was planning on ordering a 20 lb and 22 lb recoil spring to experiment with (the benefits of those are obvious). Any experiences and input on this is most welcome

It helps slow the slide to prevent battering, replacing the firing pin stop with a flat bottom firing pin stop helps also. I have a 20lb recoil spring in mine

What is the advantage of a stronger mainspring?

ETA: Creates greater resistance for the slide and slows it down during recoil. Got it. Hope a 25 or 26 lb spring won't increase my trigger pull too much .

In case anyone wants to see what they look like:

I kind of like that black on black. If my RIA didn't have an ambi safety that gets in the way it would wear the same Crimson Trace laser grips as my other two.
