Gen 4 Tungsten Guide Rod for G19


Great Product, well worth the Money Spent! Instantly noticeable how much recoil is reduced! Feels like my stock trigger has just a bit less weight to it, which is also nice

21 Gen4 Review.


As with all aftermarket parts, there is always that, "what if" it doesn't work? This is my second purchase of this product. And yes, it works! One was for a Gen4 34 and the other for a Gen4 21. Both make a noticeable difference in felt recoil. As a law enforcement officer, I'm hesitant on changing "Factory" parts due to liability issues. I consider this a reliability item. These seem to be more prevalent in the .45 caliber as in a noticeable difference. Remember, muzzle flip and recoil are two different things. This item definitely works on taming both. Buy with confidence!



Bought it for my big G21 gen 4. I can say it sounds nicer, better and smoother when you pull the slide back and forth. You can feel the quality compared to the stock guide rod. It performs exactly how they say it does and I’m pretty happy with it. Everyone should buy this.

There is a real difference


Great part well made. New guide rod 50 grams vs OEM 20 grams.
I was unsure if I would be able to tell the difference between the 2 springs but there is a slight difference when holding the pistol. The main benefit is when shooting, the recoil is reduced lessening the time for acquisition.

As described


I purchased 2 Gen 4 Tungsten Guide Rods for our 19s. I had a friend who had told me after I bought them, that he had bought 1 and did not notice any difference. He is generally right on the money, so when I received them, I approached them with skepticism and wanted to fully test them side by side. My 19s are factory, and this was to be the first improvement I was planning. I installed 1 new rod and left the other as is. I took them both out back and went through several magazines of different ammo, from factory practice, to reloads, to self-defense ammo. I then had my wife to go shoot them. She did not know which was which and also very much preferred the new rods. Hands down I noted a significant improvement in muzzle flip with the new rod with all the ammo, and experienced no malfunctions, another issue he complained of. (I should add he has had a gunsmith trick his out and I don't know exactly how or what has been adjusted). Money well invested and improved accuracy.

Perfect Glock Upgrade


Amazing Product, Easy Install, Better Proformance. I bought this for my Glock 21 Gen 4 a bit skeptical but interested. I am not the best shooter but not the worst either. First time I put it in i saw a dramatic decrease in muzzle rise and recoil, follow up shots where much closer together as well. Overall I recommend this product for any Glock Enthusiast or those just getting started or dabbling in shooting.

Bad To The Bone


Bring that G20 recoil to its knees. The factory plastic guide rod and weak spring can't hold a jock to this one! Get it; you won't regret it.

Best Inexpensive Glock Upgrade


I installed the tungsten guide rod and Double Diamond 3.5 disconnector on my Gen 4 Glock 19.
Extremely happy with the upgrade!
It made a huge difference in both accuracy and over-all feel when firing the weapon.
BTW .....Lenny did an outstanding job on the double diamond installation video. Super easy to follow making the very easy to install.

Excellent upgrade over stock


Noticeable difference in felt recoil, less muzzle flip in my G22.
