I have a brand new Ruger LCP II, and noticed when I disassembled after my first range trip of about 100 rounds that both the inner and outer recoil springs had a slight bend to them, located about 1/3 of the way from the front end. I chalked it up to a spring issue (bad heat treat or something), and ordered a set of Wolff springs to replace them. After 50 rounds on the Wolff springs, they are bent exactly the same way (see photo below). The gun has been 100% reliable so far, and I’m not necessarily concerned about it considering the function of the guide rod and the gun’s reliability thus far, but I do find it odd since I’ve never seen this on any other gun, including my original Ruger LCP, and am curious on what is causing it.
Any ideas?
