For those of you that replace recoil springs for a preventative measure, do you do the same thing for rifles?
What about striker, extractor, and ejector springs?
Why or why not?

There is a difference there. As the recoil spring weakens, it will change how recoil is percieved, but until it gets really bad, the gun will continue to function. For the extractor or striker, it either works or it doesn't. If it doesn't, it's time to replace it. If it does, there's nothing to gain from replacement. The exception is when I buy a used gun of unknown provenance, in that case, I replace most of the function springs immediately.

Overloading, period.

Unless the springs are overloaded from the factory with nothing in the trunk or rear seat, that's complete bull.
