Drill a small hole at the end of the recoils plug that goes in the spring. compress As much spring as posible and slide a paper clip in hole you drilled which will keep spring compressed. Slide spring into hole and push recoil plug as far into hole as possible before pulling paper clip. Slide rest of spring in now and drop bolt in before releasing spring.
I just received an A-5 recoil spring that was stated to fit the Remington model 11 12 gauge with a 5 round magazine tube . The A-5 spring was 3" longer than the original model 11 spring. Will it fit? Yes; after I shorten it.
Possible, but, have a gunsmith check it out.
The recall was because of a wrong size recoil spring. the shot guns recoil would break the buttstock after about 100 rounds.
Go to Colt's website and request a ownwer's manual
Try www.midwayusa.com I used them to get recoil springs for my Marlin 60. Cheapest price I could find, very quick delivery. Hope this helps.
On the muzzle-end of the barrel and recoil spring before the slide is re-attached.
When looking at the exploded view drawings of both models it certainly looks like they would be interchangeable.
At least moderately well. It is a recoil operated semi auto pistol. Parent gun was the Tokarev TT-33. The trigger releases the hammer, strikes firing pin, firing primer. Recoil of bullet being fired makes slide recoil, extracting and ejecting fired case. Recoil spring stops slide, reverses movement, picking up and chambering a fresh cartridge.

By 'buffer spring' I assume you mean the recoil spring that drives the bolt forward. Remove the inner magazine tube. Using a nylon punch, drive out the crosspin that retains the trigger guard and move the rear of the triggerguard downward and rearward to remove the assembly. With the gun upside down, pull the bolt rearward enough to tip it up at the front which will release the operating handle. Remove the bolt upward, and you will have also removed the old recoil spring. Reassemble in reverse order.
First, MAKE SURE THE GUN IS UNLOADED! Pull the slide to the rear, and lock it. Remove the magazine. Take the spring pressure off the recoil spring, by carefully turning the catch to release the recoil spring cap. Unlock slide, and slide it so that it's over the dismount cutout. Push slide lock out with fingers, and take slide off rails. Barrel will fall out of slide. Reverse to re-assemble.
Search on youtube for Winchester 1300 assembly, they are internally the same.
