Title: Guide Rod
Post by: shogan191 on January 23, 2013, 12:02:29 PM

CZ 75 SP-01 Shadow Custom Target.

Love the gun.  The guide rod on my gun is showing knicks and burs on the front side of the head portion of the guide rod.  I note this is also the case on a friends gun.    What is causing this? Is this normal?  A heavier spring prevents the slide from locking on last round.  Should I order a replacement guide rod.  They are not cheap.

Thanks.

Depends on the quality of the inside of the frame, weight of recoil spring based on power of ammo.
I any of mine show nicks i just re blend them. But since I shoot light ammo 128 PF this is not a  normal occurrence.
