Metal guide rod for a 908?

[Dave Baird]

Hi friends,
Will a metal 469 guide rod work in a 908? Just wondering.

Thank you
Dave

Yes.

As will any guide rod from any of the 3 1/2" barrelled compact 9mm pistols (469, 669, 6904, 6906, 6944, 6946, 3913, 3914, 3953, 3954, etc.).

Hi John! Thank you, sir. Still not sure if I want to switch-out the plastic one, but good to know what t look for.
Thank you once again!!!

Is that true for the entire slide, barrel, and parts as well, do you know, John? Or just the rod?

 

[JohnHL]

Yes, one way.

The base model 9mm TDA (DA/SA) slide assemblies (469, 669, 6906, 5903, 5906, etc.) will work on the "Value-Line" (908, 909, 910) frames, but the value line slide assemblies will NOT work on the base model frames because the base model slides and frames are machined for front slide/frame rails and the "Value-Line" models are not.
