Little fitting and just right
Been wanting for a while and just got and 5 minutes to fit my les bear makes a great gun better
Make your takedown easier
This product is quality, and will make the takedown of your 1911 much easier. It is harder to get the old part out than it is to install this part.
2 PC guide rod
I have Ed Brown guide Ross in all my pistols. Ed Brown products are superior to other items. Their dedication to perfection is unequaled. Absolutely a great product. I use as many Ed Brown products as possible
so far the best I have ever used.
great product. I use these very often in upgrading and customizing customers' guns. I could write a huge post but I will just say this; I have yet to find a better guide rod than this one. I have tried most all others and found them lacking.
Great product
This is a high quality product. It's sized perfectly for my Colt pistol.
1911 TAURUS
Fits perfect on my taurus PT 1911
Over All Good Drop In Upgrade
I installed this on my Ruger SR1911 and it was a perfect fit. The OAL was spot on. Very easy to install (if you can field strip your weapon you can install this part)and the included allen wrench actually fits. A bit of a rarity as far as included tools go these days, and it's not a soft steel wrench that rounds off easily. Not that you need a lot of torque on this. The spring cup to guide rod fit is surprisingly tight. Another advantage that is not in the description is a little added muzzle weight. Not enough to be a bother while sighting but helps to reduce muzzle rise just slightly. I also suspect the spring cup to be slightly thicker between the spring and barrel bushing. The new parts went in a little stiffer than the factory parts did. My pistol only had about a box of ammo through it before the upgrade. The only thing I think I'll be doing to improve this part is a bit of polishing. I can feel the spring rub against the guide rod, but if I were more patient I'm sure the parts would smooth themselves out with a few trips to the range. In conclusion I would recommend this as a simple upgrade to any level of 1911 shooter. I'll be ordering more for my other govt' models.
NOT TOO LONG FOR 4.25" COMMANDER
THIS IS VERY WELL MADE PART. DROPS RIGHT IN ON TRUE COMMANDERS. JUST MAKE SURE IT'S A 4.25" BARRELED COMMANDER. IF YOUR COMMANDER HAS A 4" BARREL IT WILL OBVIOUSLY BE A LITTLE LONG. I'VE PUT THEM IN COLTS & DAN WESSONS FOR CUSTOMERS & THEY WHERE VERY PLEASED!
EASY UPGRADE
I'VE INSTALLED ALOT OF THESE IN CUSTOMERS GUNS. COLT, SPRINGFIELD, KIMBER, DAN WESSON, TAURUS, ETC.. ALL THE BENEFITS OF A 1-PIECE GUIDE ROD BUT MAKES IT MUCH EASIER TO DISASSEMBLE. I'VE NEVER HAD TO GRIND ON 1 OR MODIFIY IN ANY WAY. BEAUTIFUL FINISH, LOOKS LIKE ONE SOLID PIECE UNTIL YOU UNSREW IT.
