Also, the return spring forces the muzzle to battery to ensure that it clears the feed lips on the mag thereby ensuring a more consistant chambering of the projectile. It will smoothen the action.
Lastly, that nozzle will jam on the piston head if it's not in battery before the slide's action to the rear ends. I cant tell yo how many M92s i've fixed because of this...
I encourage you to find and replace that spring. Buy strong ones if you can. those stock springs are garbage...

While I would agree with you, it's actually much cheaper to buy a replacement nozzle than to buy the actual spring itself. I've been trying to find these springs for a while and it's cheaper to buy the nozzle itself than the spring just out of availability... Though I'm not sure what the difference in nozzle springs are between 1911, glocks, etc...
The pen springs are actually difficult to find due to the wide diameter of the pen springs.
