That is not going to happen any time soon.Anyway the slide has to overcome
the recoil spring resistance to further compression to reach the end of rearward
travel,so if its purpose is essentially to return it to battery then it would seem logical to think that anything in terms of weight would do the job.
As it is there's considerable energy absorption which leads me to think that it
does more than that and it is closely matched to work with the mainspring
to properly cycle the the pistol.
