Abstract
A recoil spring assembly for a firearm provides a spring insert with an end piece. The end piece interacts with other components of the firearm to selectively secure the recoil spring in position. This allows the recoil spring to be selectively retained in the firearm when disassembling and reassembling the firearm.
