I cannot tell you for certain but I dropped a 13# IMSI glock 17 spring in my M&P40 and it feels the same. Not scientific by any means but it is close enough for me.

2. What are the recoil spring rates you guys are using in the 9, 40, 357 (currently we use the same spring for all three 9/40 and 357, in the future we will be using a heavier spring in the 40 and 357 as far as spring rates they are something like this;
current 9/40 spring "marked blue"
10lb
k=3.7 lb/in
future spring for 40/357 and possibly 45 spring "marked green"
13lb
k=2.9 lb/in)
