EGW 1-Piece Stainless Steel Commander Guide Rod with Takedown Hole
Reliable Upgrade for Commander-Length 1911 Pistols
Upgrade your 1911 with the EGW 1-Piece Stainless Steel Commander Guide Rod. It provides strength, precision, and a flush fit. In addition, it preserves traditional 1911 disassembly. This guide rod works with both bushing-style barrels and bull barrel configurations. However, bull barrel models require a separate reverse plug. As a result, this guide rod fits most Commander-length builds with ease.
Easy Disassembly and Smooth Operation
Takedown Hole for Quick Maintenance
EGW includes a takedown hole in the guide rod. Therefore, you can capture the recoil spring during disassembly. This makes cleaning and reassembly faster and safer. It also reduces the chance of misalignment or spring loss. Consequently, your pistol stays reliable during frequent use.
Flush-Fit Design for Bushing Removal
The guide rod sits flush with the slide. This allows the barrel bushing to rotate normally during takedown. As a result, the pistol maintains its original function. At the same time, the solid one-piece design improves durability and prevents interference with internal parts.
Precise Machining and Clean Look
Smooth Beveled Head
EGW machines the guide rod head with smooth, beveled edges. This gives the pistol a seamless, professional look. It also prevents contact with other parts, reducing wear over time. Consequently, your pistol looks cleaner and works better.
Stainless Steel Construction
The guide rod and spring plug are made from stainless steel. This material resists rust and stays strong under repeated use. Moreover, it keeps its shape during recoil. Therefore, your pistol performs consistently for years.
Fitment and Installation
Key Areas to Check
Before installation, check three areas carefully:
-
Make sure the barrel feet do not touch the guide rod head.
-
Check that the guide rod rests evenly against the frame.
-
Confirm the back of the slide and dust cover is flat and even.
By following these steps, you ensure safe and smooth operation.
