Has anyone else noticed this? I ordered a couple of each of the 11lb and they are both the same. The 13lb will return it to battery.

Dry vs wet carbon fiberresin

The terms “dry” and “wet” in carbon fiber refer to how the product is produced or manufactured. Each has its own unique approach, but the result is actually quite different in terms of weight, strength and other factors.

Dry carbon fiber

Because of the external dimensions of the Glock Marksman Barrel (the Gen5 barrel), it takes an OEM Recoil Spring Ass'y that it close to 1/3" longer than a Gen4. A spring that is designed for the dimensions of a Gen2/3/4 RSA is going to sit loose in the Gen5 slide, exerting less pressure when the slide is closed. Gen5's generally need one step stronger to act like a previous-Generation gun (use a 13# where you may have gotten away with an 11 in your Gen3).

Of the many different terms associated with carbon fiber, the terms "dry" and "wet" carbon fiber may cause the most confusion. Each type has its own set of advantages and disadvantages, but understanding the differences will help lead you towards making a better informed decision about which to choose for your needs.

These fat springs seem very light compared to the "normal" size springs. The 11lb spring for the PTGR doesn't even come close to getting the slide back into battery.

Hello: Does the guide rod use a bushing in the front of the slide? If so could it be binding on the guide rod? I have had better luck using a 13lb ISMI flat spring or a 12-14lb Wolff round wire spring in Glock 17's or 34's. I don't know whose spring the Glock Store is using. Make sure your striker spring balances things out. I would do some drills to see what spring works the best for you. Thanks, Eric

I had the experience Eric suggests with a G34/35 length TGR - I don't remember if it was Glock Store or not. It was a Gen3 type with an adaptor for the Gen4 slide. My once reliable G35 was turned into an unreliable piece of garbage due to that setup. Putting the old Jager steel rod back in completely resolved the issue.

However, wet carbon fiber is subject to having more air bubbles which can create weaknesses and wavy fiber weaves which is less consistent that the dry counterpart. Because it is far less expensive to create carbon fiber using the wet method, most carbon fiber parts are created “wet”.

PS, if you want to buy a knowingly bad TGR for a 34/35 length slide, with no returns and no complaints allowed, send me a PM.

Dry carbon fiber is formed by using a pre-preg or impregnated piece of carbon materials. This piece of carbon is first placed into a mold, and then into a sealed vacuum to properly cure. This particular method creates the least amount of waste and forms a lighter version of carbon than the “wet” method. The vacuuming process of making dry carbon means that there are fewer pinholes and almost no air pockets that form in the carbon. Dry carbon is the highest quality version of carbon fiber products that are produced.

IMHO, this is the closest guess to why this is happening. Not that the OP actually has a 19 spring, but he does have a SHORT spring.

Noticed the same thing, even the 13 is too weak to be reliable in gen5 with 4.5lb striker spring. Try a 15, if that doesn’t work then dump it and get a Jentra.
