I have Wolff springs of an unknown weight in the .38 SP101 , with the bobbed hammer and have had 0 reliability issues with 200 rounds of PMC .38
I just put ISMI springs in the 9mm SP101 with the spurred hammer, and ran 100 rounds of CCI Blazer through it with 100% reliability and deep primer dents. A few rounds of Freedom Munitions 9mm took two hits to pop but they are known for seating primers high
I had thought about having the 9mm SPs hammer bobbed but , having fired revolvers with both bobbed and spurred hammers over the years and not seeing any real difference as far as using lighter springs.....what are some opinions out there ?
Google searching and other revolver shooters opinions seem split on this. Some seem to feel the lighter , bobbed hammer is faster and more reliable and others feel the spur keeps the mass needed for a reliable hit on the firing pin.
