I bought a flat wired recoil spring and guide rod kit for my Kimber 3" ultra ll. Like all other items I have bought from EGW,the quality is outstanding. As usual I'm very happy with my experience with EGW.

Guide Rod kit fit very nicely, after I had to do a little filing to adjust the fit. It was definitely not a drop in part. Otherwise, looks good, seems to function properly. I will test on range in the immediate future.

fits well in Kimber Ultra Carry II and Desert Eagle Under Cover. However spring weight is quite a bit higher than stock and does not function reliably.

While it works on most, it doesn’t work in a Rock Island BBR. The assembly is very well made and I’m sad it doesn’t fit in my BBR. I’ll keep the part and use the experience for a reason to buy a Defender.
