If your debate is between those two, Wilson Combat. Wolff doesn't make some of the nicest 1911s available.

wilson combat spring came in and installed but i dont like it. recoil spring is stiff when racking the slide. i guess the 316G is for .45 1911 kit. thinking pf selling and buy a kit for 9mm

You should've read the details and made sure it is for 9mm. Recoil spring should be around 10lbs.
