M1 Carbine Replacement Recoil Spring

[Retired AF CE]

I need a new recoil spring for my carbine. I need to know what is a good replacement. How are Wolf springs? Should I stay away from Wolf?

Thanks

Your spring should be 10.25" long. Original springs are available. Most say stay away from wolf springs.

I think Numrich sells a spring kit that has the recoil spring, one or two 15 round mag springs, and I think a few other misc springs for not a lot of money. This is what I used and it solved my issues but I can't recall if these are new, used , or surplus USGI. I think the mag springs were surplus going off their condition.
