also I seem to be light striking for the first few shots every mag. it has a guarder hammer spring but is still quite inconsistent. chrono says 210-230 and I have to manually cycle the slide to load a round for a few shots before it decides to start self-loading and gets to about 280.
What's inside your gun????? O_0

Weak blowback usually means that the piston head can't seal properly.
Piston heads are almost the culprit to weak strokes most of the time....

Your light strikes...

It could be that the firing pin can not engage the valve properly.

Or if you were in my shoes just now as I try and fix this guy's gun, the valve is actually faulty. Usually, needs a bit of lube to the valve to make sure it can fluently move.

But my guess is that the actual hammer spring is not strong enough to open the valve. I suggest you switch the hammer spring to a Shooter's Design one. They're pretty good and is probably my number choice as far as hammer spring goes.

This will cause you to have weak blowback as well considering there won't be enough air to push the push backwards.

If you want a really strong felt recoil, revert your recoil spring back to stock. THis will give the slide less resistance during the rear stroke and a higher recoil velocity....

weak recoil spring + heavy slide = stronger felt recoil

I dunno. I'm just maing guesses. I don't have your gun in front of me to fool around with. Sorry mate. I hope this offers some sort help for you...
