Assembled Stainless Steel Guide Rod
Add weight to reduce muzzle flip and decrease follow up shot time of your American 9mm Pistol series with our Assembled Stainless Steel Guide Rod. Also allows use of different spring rates to tune the pistol to your needs and handloads. The flat wound springs are made for us by ISMI, a leader in the spring market here in the U.S.A, to our specifications. Made on the same machines that make springs for Formula 1 and IndyCar race cars, made exclusively with aerospace specification alloys. Made from Chrome Silicon Spring Wire, the only choice for a longer lasting, more enjoyable shooting experience verses inferior Music Wire springs. These are polished and assembled with Loctite to your needs. Pick spring rate and retainer screw color (polished stainless or blacked tool steel) and we'll assemble it as requested.
We offer fully assembled units captured like factory in 15lb, 18lb, 20lb, and 22lb.
-Factory spring is 18lb.
The full size pistols both now ship with 18lb, we recommend the 20lb for the 9mm, the 15lb spring is for light hand loads only.
Fits Ruger American® 9mm Pistols only.
As always, proudly made right here in the USA.

Will this fit the full size Ruger American in 45 ACP?
Oct 7, 2022, 10:28No just the 9mm version. I do not offer the 45 version anymore due to changes in the slide and rod assembly.

I know the Stock guide rod that comes originally with the pistol is Rated for thousands of rounds according to Ruger. Is this Aftermarket guide rod also Rated for Thousands of Rounds as well ??
Apr 7, 2022, 10:10We do not offer a round count warranty, I've never seen Ruger offer or state one either. The rods shouldn't wear much and we offer ours for corrosion resistance vs a blacked unit. Some folks don't like surface rust that can happen over time on the stock one.
