I just can’t find any, and the couple I have found are twice as much as they usually are. Any leads? And also is there any advantage to getting a flat wire over the standard twisted wire spring ?

No advantages (or disadvantages) either way, as far as I know. P239s were always the "flat" style, I believe, and didn't seem to contribute to any reliability issues.

Shoot me an e-mail with your shipping info.

I'm confused are there none? or you don't like the price. Two different issues. I certainly see some available.

I’ve had to resort to eBay a time or two for these. Otherwise, I placed a back-order with Wolff that was ultimately fulfilled about two months later.

The bigger problem is just finding them. When I looked back at where I thought I saw the more expensive ones it was a kit that included a guide rod and I already have a nice one

There is some of the light blue wound US made Sig springs on Gunbroker'

Glad I picked up an extra dark blue German one last year, they are getting hard to find.

Am I missing something or did I not find it with easy fanfare at Wolff?

Back in stock. I'm not sure about the price so I didn't pull the trigger yet.
