Mainsprings powering automatic movements slip inside their barrel - and that can sometimes be felt as resistance when the spring is fully compressed.

Barrels don’t slip unless there is a problem.

Thanks for clarifying; slips against the barrel surface or barrel slips against the mainspring; it's a matter of perspective. At any rate, again, thanks for clarifying.
