EGW standard SS spring plug is included.This kit does not include recoil springs, but they can be purchased separately.The head of the guide rod has smooth beveled edges to make for a seamless look.This tungsten guide rod should be checked by a gunsmith familiar with the 1911 design. It may require minor fitting to contact the frame evenly. Failure to do so may lead to premature wear and/or breakage which will not be covered under warranty.Our STI Guide rods are made specifically for STI models as the button on the end of the guide rod is smaller in diameter than a standard guide rod.It is necessary to remove the front half of the guide rod to disassemble the gun.Check for fit in 3 areas:(1) Barrel feet should not contact head(2) Where guide rod rests against frame(3) Back surface of slide/dustcover is flat and even.
Warning: This product may be alloyed with trace amounts of lead and other elements which are known to the State of California to cause reproductive harm and cancer. To prevent exposure, do not alter the product by welding, grinding, etc. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Drop it in an running no issues. It’s nice having the extra weight out front has helped me to improve my follow shoot no question.

Put this in my MPA DS9 as it was recommended by some MPA employee competition shooters. I like the embedded weight on the front of the pistol and it makes an already flat shooting gun even flatter

Beautiful piece of work. Dropped in my STI. 3.4 Oz out front really helped recoil flip.

I have a Stealth Arms Platypus, which uses a too-long 2-piece guide rod. It's too long to allow the barrel bushing to swing away and allow easy takedown. I'm using this Tungsten STI guide rod now which is of a proper length, as well as adding some weight to this relatively light-weight 2011. The gun now takes down like a standard barrel-bushed 1911/2011 and I'm very pleased with it.

High quality guide rod. Dampened recoil, but didn't help with faster follow up shot. Too much pendulum effect.
