Was told by gemtech that the can needed breaking in time to function properly with my glock 19. They recommend using 124gr i only have 147.
I bought a 15lb ndz performance spring still basically a single shot gun with can attached. Bought a new 13lb spring havent tried it yet. When it was on my glock 21 45 perfect out of the box. I have steel suppressor sights and a trijicon rmr on the glock 19 slide excess weight could be causing the issue?

I'm not an SME on cans but I've never heard that a can needs to be broken in before you can fire heavier subsonic rounds through it. If they're saying that your G19 needs to be broken in, then I call BS.
As far as function goes, if it's slamming the slide back with too much force, you need a heavier spring. If it's short cycling you need a lighter spring. You may need to try a few before you find the right combo for your specific setup.

I know my brother had issues with his AWC 45 suppressor on his Glock 19. Would never cycle. Cycled fine on his Beretta 92. He ended up buying a Tundra for his 19.
Not an SME on cans either, but possibly an issue with the suppressor weight preventing the G19 from unlocking the barrel/disrupting the timing enough to cause consistent issues - how the barrel has to pivot to unlock - adding all that extra weight past the muzzle could explain something, maybe? Could also explain why the lighter spring didn't solve anything.
13lb recoil spring did not work think my slide is too heavy with the rmr and steel suppressor sights with dovetail cut. Gemtech said send the gm45 back so they can test and possibly fix. Im not getting enuff back pressure to cycle the slide to eject and chamber a round!
What barrel choice did you go with? Fitment of the barrel can make a word of difference. Bad lock up due to tolerance issues can cause hic-cups with the added weight that may not be apparent when non-suppressed.
Stock slide? Same thing, tolerance issues.
Switch to a Gen 3 spring assembly yet with the conversion piece? Gen 4 dual recoil spring can be problematic when suppressed.

Silencerco threaded barrel they usually good to go. If thats the issue could go with an aac that worked flawlessly when i had the can on my 21. I had 2 ndz performance recoil springs one in 15lbs the other in 13lbs neither worked. however i did not buy an adapter with the ndz recoil springs did i need one?
I’d get the adapter piece and an $18.00 stock Gen 3 recoil system and see if that doesn't clear it up. Works on mine.
