APX Full Size Stainless Steel Guide Rod Assembly
Add weight to reduce muzzle flip and decrease follow up shot time of your APX pistol with the Galloway Precision Assembled Stainless Steel Guide Rod. Our assembly converts it to a flat wound recoil spring that 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. Select spring rate and retainer screw color and we'll assemble it as requested.
Choose from Black Oxide Billet Steel or Stainless Steel Retainer with your choice of 15, 18, 20, or 22 pound recoil spring. Stock rate is 18lb.
Fits Beretta™ APX and APX A1 9 and 40 Full Size Pistols Only. *** Will not fit the Compact or Centurion Models. ***
As always, proudly made right here in the USA.

In description it mentions specifically APX A1, but the Answers contradict description so is it fit or not?
Jan 13, 2025, 13:10We do not have any specific A1 model parts. The full size pistols will use the rod, the A1 has been applied to models other than the full size so it creates confusion.

Got my gun, but waiting on suppressor (silencerco spectre 9) for this one. I always shoot 115 grain, suppressed or not, on other guns. Should I stick with the 18lb offered in stainless or move up to the 20lb? I never plan on shooting subsonic ammo. I just don’t want any issues cycling.
Dec 19, 2024, 11:20115 practice ammo tends to not have a lot pressure so it is generally just inside the minimum pressure range. This can cause cycle issues with a suppressor due to the added mass past the slide. The 20lb will aid in recoil control and brass ejection distance but may remove to much energy on the slide with the mass of the suppressor out past the slide.

Looking for a stainless steel guide rod for a beretta apx a1 carry. I like the stainless steel over plastic that comes factory. This is the small 3 inch barrel pistol

The nano guiderod is the same for both.

Dan H.Oct 23, 2020, 08:52What a difference! After seeing the video of how increasing to 22# would tighten groupings, I gave it a shot. 115gr FMJ's cycle beautifully and recoil is diminished. Groups tightened up immediately. Do yourself a favor and do the striker upgrade as well. APX 9mm is so much fun to shoot now.
