TMC Recoil Spring Guide – 5″ Government – Stainless Steel

TMC Recoil Spring Guide – 5″ Government – Stainless Steel

The TMC 5″ Government Stainless Steel Recoil Spring Guide delivers strength, durability, and smooth operation for Government-length 1911 pistols. It secures the recoil spring, controls slide movement, and reduces stress between the slide and frame during repeated firing cycles.

Because the recoil spring guide absorbs constant impact, strength is critical. Therefore, TMC engineered this guide to handle heavy use and high-performance loads with confidence.

One-Piece Solid Design for Maximum Strength

First, TMC CNC machines each guide from solid stainless steel bar stock. Unlike hollow guides, this one uses a solid one-piece design without a through-hole. As a result, it resists bending, cracking, or deforming during extended shooting sessions.

Next, the solid construction improves reliability. Consequently, your pistol cycles smoothly and consistently, shot after shot.

Heat Treated and Hardened for Long Service Life

In addition to its solid design, TMC heat treats and hardens each guide. This process strengthens the steel and allows it to withstand repeated impact between the slide and frame.

Moreover, the hardened stainless maintains its shape and performance over time. Therefore, your Government pistol continues to operate reliably under demanding conditions.

Precision Fit for Government Pistols

This recoil spring guide fits 5-inch Government 1911 pistols. It keeps the recoil spring aligned and ensures smooth slide cycling during every shot.

Although TMC machines the guide to factory specifications, some pistols may require minor fitting. Therefore, it works equally well for custom builds or restoring a pistol to true mil-spec standards.

Micro-Polished Stainless Finish

In addition, the guide features a Micro-Polished stainless finish. This smooth surface reduces friction, allowing the recoil spring to compress and release freely.

Moreover, the polished stainless steel resists corrosion and complements stainless or two-tone pistols. Consequently, the guide provides both reliable function and a professional appearance.

Built to Meet or Exceed Factory Specifications

These recoil spring guides meet or exceed original factory specifications. As a result, they deliver long-lasting service, reliable cycling, and consistent performance.

Whether you are building a new Government 1911 or restoring a worn pistol, this guide ensures strength, durability, and smooth operation every time.
