[QUOTE="D V US, post: 2885002, member: 34558"] I bought a guide rod system back in the 90s, I don't recall who made it, but it's a stainless rod that looks to be fitted into a spring guide plug with the rod turned down to accept a spring between the rod and the guide. The recoil spring plug at the front of the slide would catch an enlarged part of the guide rod about 1/4" from full rearward travel and the other spring between the rod and guide would cushion the shock of the slide. I tried it on a whim because I was tired of replacing shock-buffs. I'm still using it to this day. It does make it hard to lock the slide back manually though, really gotta get a run at it. [/QUOTE]
