KEL-TEC PMR-30 Extra Power Recoil Spring

I installed per the video, All went okay ,the small ring clip takes some patience to get back together. I tried the small ring that came with the springs but the I.D. was too large so I reused the old one.

Installation was easy except for putting in the little retaining wire. Hard for me mostly because I didn't have the right tools I had to do it with a pair of channel locks and a butcher knife next time I'll know to have a small pair of needle nose.
recoil is negligible now, almost like shooting a BB gun LOL.
Two things I would like to bring up, you guys should just go ahead and include a couple of extra retaining wires instead of just one or just invent a better clip,those of us who aren't gun repair savvy are going to lose them or break them, I did both LOL. but one text and you guys shipped me out two more I really appreciate it , great customer service!
secondly yes you need to manufacture a better plastic buffer than Kel-Tec provides!!! I've had to order extra from them because I keep melting the ones I have. Thanks for a great product and thanks for all your help

Just finished installing the spring and trigger in my pmr30. Your video was extremely helpful and the parts work great. I would like it if you offered a better buffer for the spring. As you said the factory buffer melts and mine is showing signs of a problem. I will get by till you offer one. I have one suggestion for installing the spring. For us “older” folks I would suggest using a small needle nose vise grip to hold the spring down. I used mine and it made the installation so much easier. Thanks for the great products.

Installed the springs after watching the install video. Definitely stronger than stock. Now onto the fun part. Removing and reinstalling the retention ring, part #163. It was a pain, definitely need to come up with some sort of replacement. Had to use micro screwdrivers to get the ring off. Also used vise grips on the recoil spring guide rod to keep the springs compressed while removing and installing the ring.

Followed the video a install was a snap. So far so good on performance issues. I would love to have been able to buy the stainless guide rod but was told they don't make it anymore!
