I successfully changed the springs on my WW2 P38. Look at Tanfo's video and maintain control of the spring and all will be fine.
I took one out & measured it and it was within spec, but looked a little worn, the sides of the spring were flat spotted. Replaced and ordered 2 more sets of springs for my other P's. Can't hurt to have on hand. By the way the link above is the wrong one. TANFO's excellent spring replacement video at: P5 Spring Video (This is a P5 but P38 recoil springs go in the same way). This guy's a master, be VERY careful, he makes it look easier than your first time, but it's not brain surgery. Be careful and be patient, and use the recommended procedures.
