XDS Stainless Steel Assembled Guide Rod
Those of you loading your light loads have asked for a reduced power recoil spring set and we are providing it as well as a increased rate for those seeking a little more recoil control with hotter 165, 185 and 200 grain loads. The 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 pleasurable shooting experience verses inferior Music Spring Wire springs.
We offer direct drop in units for 45's, completely assembled with your choice of blacked retainer or polished stainless retainer. Will fit 9mm and 40 S&W also.
***Be aware we have found some slides on the 4 inch barrel versions need the retaining screw turned out 1 turn. This is easy to do and varies depending on slide machining of the pistol from the factory***
Choose from the 25% reduced or 25% increased, Select a Blacked or Polished Stainless retainer.
Fits Springfield Armory XDS 45 ACP, 40 S&W, and 9mm Pistols. *** Does NOT fit Mod.2 Pistols. ***
As always, proudly made right here in the USA.

Will this fit in my xds 45 4.0? And I read the disclaimer if it doesn’t fit, how do you turn the retainer 1 turn out to make it fit?
May 5, 2025, 07:52You would compress the springs down below the muzzle end of the assembly, lock them back and heat the rod body behind the retainer with a bic lighter or heater to loosen the loctite and turn the retainer out.

looking to decrease the tension when I rack my slide back, which one should I get?
Apr 18, 2025, 08:17Not something we suggest, the lower rate spring assemblies we offer is to help it cycle sub sonic ammo better. Going lower on the spring rate and running full pressure or high pressure ammo can damage the locking block over time.
I can recommend working on a cave man grip and rip racking the slide. Place the support hand fingers on one side the palm opposite, grip tightly and rip back on the slide while driving the shooting hand forward. This will give the most grip and force you can apply to the small surface area to help with racking. -

Hi. I bought a 25%increased guide rod. My understanding is that this will have a 25 percent increase in recoil reduction. Am I correct or do I have it backwards and bought the wrong one?
Mar 1, 2024, 09:41It is 25% increase in spring rate over stock rate. It will not reduce recoil by 25% no.
