I installed the FLGR in my norinco build. First I installed the shorter spring guide with the 18# recoil spring and heard it binding and coiling as I ran the slide back by hand. With the FLGR no more noises. I have less recoil, faster cycling, less wasted cycling time, faster second shot.

What's the short spring rod do? Oh disassembly is easier.
