    S&W shield 9mm torture test with one piece guide rod.

    I have been gunsmithing for a long time now, and every gun XDS, Ruger, etc.. that I have put a guiderod in either from galloway or others of that caliber has not failed me once. My friend who runs a gun store is a Glock armorer and I saw what he had to go through to get that. Not knocking it...

    S&W shield 9mm torture test with one piece guide rod.

    When both of mine failed open in battery I did a google search and found multiple post here about the same thing. What I really don't understand is that most people don't know about guide rod upgrades. I mean almost every gun I have is upgraded to a one piece stainless guide rod, it gives the...

    S&W shield 9mm torture test with one piece guide rod.

    Yeah I have two shields from first batch released and they failed open in battery because of the small flat washer design that meets up to the barrel, and this guide rod allows for spring weight adjustment, and it got rid of the failure. This is something most, if not at least all people...

    Yeah if you just send the factory guide rod they use your old spring you don't have to take it apart yourself. Just saves on money for your end, unless you just ordered guide rod and bought spring from S&W or glock, etc..

    S&W Shield One Piece Guide Rods!

    I am not debating S&W production. Both of my shields are from the first batch run, what I am saying. Upgrading to single piece guide rods is a normal thing for MANY guns, just look at galloway percision, apex tactical, powder percision for xd,xds,xdm's...etc... The cycling is so much...

    S&W Shield One Piece Guide Rods!

    Yes you can buy springs (glock,etc..) and fine tune it if you want, but just the little shooting I did today ... holy hell its night and day difference. Will have a torture test video coming soon though 500rds at the range on my go pro to show performance.

    I just got back from the range I was shooting my 1911 I just did a trigger job on and I sent 5 mags down range in my shield.... all I can say is night and day difference and I do not have the apex kit installed. The cycling is so much smoother, but I will do the torture test video and have it...

    I have the first two they ever made, and yes I sent the factory one in so they could use the factory spring. The advantages is the cycling is so much smoother, the back plate that buts up against the barrel is not some slim, flimsy piece of metal this is all cnc parts. So there will be no...

    S&W Shield One Piece Guide Rods!

    Yeah I am going to make a video with 500rds, and its not the tension its the design of the old shield guide rod if you look at the part that meets up with the barrel on both of mine they are just bent up and not flat anymore. When I make the video ill put them side by side, etc...

    S&W Shield One Piece Guide Rods!

    Uses the factory spring, and first thing I did when they failed at range was search here. The small washer/disc that holds the spring in for the smaller side of the guide rod will bend/flex and one of them caused the pistol to stay stuck all the way back after eject. The other one, was stuck...

    S&W Shield One Piece Guide Rods!

    Because both of mine failed, there are tons of threads about it. Both of mine are from the first batch when they came out. I have replaced guide rods in almost every handgun I own. It is a quick and easy upgrade and in this case fixed a failure on two guns.

    S&W Shield One Piece Guide Rods!

    I sent my old guide rod to ssguiderods.com and they prototyped and made me a one piece guide rod using my spring from factory guide rod. I am having my 2nd one made for my other S&W shield. If you visit their facebook shows tells you about it, they just finished it last week...

    M&P Shield Night Sights (Trijicon/Ameriglo)

    Okay so I have read all the threads about the Trijicon SA37 kit working for the shield but dvor.com had just the rear SA37R on sale for $63 and the Ameriglo SW-212-230-GR (Trijicon sights green/yellow circle in Ameriglo metal) on sale for $40. I measured the height of the base and the crown on...

    OFFICIAL (IN STOCK) 22LR AMMO THREAD

    CCI CB Long 0038 is for 22LR guns, if you have a bolt action no worries about feeding, if you have a standard 22LR off the shelf will most likely not feed, if you upgrade the cocking hammer and spring, rod with say a KIDD setup that has a Subsonic spring in the kit (from my experience) it works...
