“Glockmeister has designed a stainless steel recoil spring assembly for the Gen 4 G17 and G22. Through extensive testing we have seen improved groupings and less perceived recoil compared to using the stock assembly. The stainless steel assembly will also provide increased reliability and ensures no breaking or cracking of the rod. ISMI recoil springs are used on this assembly. Select from either the stock weight spring or for $2 choose a custom weight spring.
Like all Glockmeister products this guide rod is made to the highest standards using the highest quality materials available. CNC machined here in the United States.”
Just ordered one with a 15lb spring from Glockmeister, I would’ve ordered the Jager one, but since there’s no verdict on whether I’ll be able to use it and keep the gun legal in IDPA SSP yet, figured I’d get the $10 cheaper one since it very well may end up coming out and not being used at some point… I’m not a stickler for IDPA’s rules or anything, but since it’s my main form of practical practice I like to carry what I use in IDPA that’s all.
I settled on the 15lb ISMI working best for me after in my 3rdGen G17’s and have shot mine that way for over a year, so I’m hoping it’ll feel just like an old friend. We’ll see how it goes I guess…
Check that. Found out they’ll be illegal in SSP so I’m going to wait for Jager to cook up a polymer version or until Glock offers us plebs the lighter “02” version, order cancelled.
