EGW 1911 Guide Rod – 6″ Government – 2 piece

EGW 2‑Piece Guide Rod – 6″ Government (Long Slide)

The EGW 2‑Piece Guide Rod – 6″ Government provides strength, precision, and easy maintenance for 6″ long-slide 1911 pistols. Designed for Colt-style 1911s and quality clones, this guide rod system not only ensures reliable cycling but also allows proper disassembly of long-slide pistols.

Designed Specifically for 6″ Long-Slide Pistols

First, this guide rod fits 1911 pistols with 6″ barrels, making it ideal for custom builds, competition pistols, or long-slide upgrades. Furthermore, it works with all calibers, which adds versatility for a variety of shooting applications.

Because long-slide pistols cannot disassemble with a one-piece guide rod, EGW uses a two-piece design. Therefore, you can safely remove the front section of the guide rod to field strip your pistol, making cleaning and maintenance straightforward.

Precision Machined with No MIM Parts

In addition, EGW machines every component from solid stainless steel bar stock using CNC equipment. As a result, there are no MIM parts, which ensures superior strength, precise fit, and long-term durability.

Moreover, the smooth beveled head creates a seamless, professional appearance while reducing sharp edges that could cause wear or damage over time.

Easy Disassembly and Proper Fit

Additionally, the kit includes a disassembly wrench, so you have everything you need for maintenance right out of the box. During installation, EGW recommends checking fit in three critical areas to ensure proper function:

1. Ensure the barrel feet do not contact the guide rod head

2. Confirm the guide rod rests cleanly against the frame

3. Verify the back surface of the slide and dust cover remains flat and even

By following these steps, you maintain smooth cycling and prevent unnecessary stress on your pistol’s internal components.
