Description
Grayguns unique step-tapered design and unmatched surface finish afford easy installation with optimum recoil spring support. Proper spring support ensures maximum spring life and smooth cycling.

Excellent product. Will use more of these in the shop.
Nice weight. Heavier then OEM. Works great with OEM braided recoil spring.
This add weight and give the gun a great feel.
Nice. Adds weight.
Ok, ready for this? The Walther ppq45 is terribly under sprung. Thie Greyguns fat guide rod for the Sig p220, Sig p220 factory recoil spring, and Sprinco Walther ppq slide bushing is the solution. Full power and +p loads are no longer beating the gun to death. You may need extra power mag springs with +p loads due to the increased slide velocity going back into battery.
I wasn’tsure how much the custom fat super black guide rod would change the feel of my W. Gernan P226? But, it was very noticeable as soon as i dropped it in my gun. Smoothed out the recoil dramatically.
Arrived promptly, fit well/no issues in a 1994 W. German mfg. P220 with original recoil spring, (extremely low round count firearm).
Nicely made.
Great communication, fast shipping everything I expect. My problem is I need to learn to read it don’t fit my P220 legion and it says it in the description lol. Not worth it to me to mess with sending it back and I have an Sig it will work on. Got too give them the opportunity to fix my screw up so I can’t complain.
Great product and made my P226 hummmm like sewing machine, I also added the Pink Spring for a little extra power (Because I have upgraded all Springs on my P226) and that combo of Fat Guide Rod and Pink Spring were nothing short of spectacular!
Easy install, even though it’s not a captured spring. That actually makes it very easy to clean the guide rod if it gets dirty. It runs smoother than the stock RSA, and the ability to swap out springs to tune the recoil is great. During takedown, a light push upward and backward on the front end of the guide rod allows the TDL to rotate much easier than just trying to force it. Great guide rod.
Fit perfectly and looks great sitting flush with the front of the slide. I have also noticed the slide rests evenly centered on the frame, something that it didn’t do with the OEM spring. Hoping to shoot it soon and see if I improve my accuracy and the guns feel… I kinda feel like that is highly likely with as awesome as it is just doing dry-firing.
Quick shipping and easy install. Like the ability to use 1911 recoil springs in my 320.
