The Masada Stainless Guide Rod is a stainless captured spring recoil rod meant to replace the OEM plastic guide rod assembly.   It comes with a custom wound 18 pound flat wound spring pre-installed, which reduces felt recoil and muzzle flip.  All Rod components and hardware are stainless steel, and the part is a drop in replacement for the OEM plastic guide rod.

NOTE:  The spring is custom wound for this application, and is under considerable compression. Manticore Arms does not recommend any attempt to disassemble the product or attempt to use another spring, as other springs may compress fully solid and cause firearm malfunction, and uncontrolled release of the spring from the rod assembly could cause injury.
