Review
Great simple upgrade No more pot steel rod Super easy install
Looks great. Easy install. OEM rod is NOT plastic as described by MCARBO but is mild steel.
Rod looks good, but not sure if it adds any function. The original rod is also steel, or at least metal. Maybe this one is stronger and can't rust. I hope so.
Nice fit. Good quality.
Cost effective upgrade. Very slick and solid built. Keeping the factory guide rod as an emergency backup, however, I doubt this stainless one will ever fail. The slide operates nice and smooth as the springs slide on this guiderod.
I purchased this guide rod along with the Mcarbo takedown pin for the LCP Max. The Mcarbo guide rod is smooth and very well machined. Some people have reported seeing galling on the stock Ruger guide rod. If so, look for metal burrs surrounding the hole in the slide that the guide rod passes through when the slide is retracted. You will want those burrs removed before using your new and stronger Mcarbo SS guide rod.
works perfectly in my LCP MAX...very sturdy upgrade from factory plastic guide rod...highly recommend...looks great also
