Hi Lenny, I'm look for a Tungsten Guide Rod (captured spring) for my Glock 23 (Gen5) but I do not see one for the G23s on your website, do you know when you'll have them available? Please let me know..Thanks

Hahahaha

Lol. Well, suckers are always business opportunity.

I got light-headed reading ur comment

I understand what the guy is saying. I never actively shot a handgun until 2020. Initially I had similar problems to what this guy is talking about and when I am shooting multiple successive shots regaining target acquisition is definitely a skill learned with any gun. The less the barrel and the guide rod weighs the more the weapon will kickback. Using Tungsten steel for the guiderod will reduce kickback slightly. Anyone who's used to shooting the Glock from the factory like you and me would probably have to shoot a few hundred rounds before we could make an accurate assessment to how such a change would be. This guy is indeed just selling a product but I wouldn't mind getting a hold of that steel rod and going to the range.

lol

I machined mine out of depleted uranium :)

@@mytoolworldI got the solid diamond Gucci guide rod. It lights up every time I fire. XD

😂😂😂😂

The guide rod with diomonds works better

I recently traveled to wakanda so that I could get one made out of Vibranium. Finally, the very manageable recoil is gone.

Bro i just bought the exact same gun and conversion barrel as well. Im not sure weather or not to buy the guide rod some people are saying there having issues. Why do i feel like your from cali too tho i mean we bought gen 3’s :(

After changing the rod can you use any ammo? I have the stock guide rod in mine, and noticed I can’t use any ammo with any kind of ridges on the point(has to be smooth) or it won’t feed

Hey which guild rod did you get for the 17? What weight

It was the factory standard weight: 17 lbs.@@Robedoe

The most versatile Glock ever made. You made a smart choice. Got a 27 myself, and in the market for a new recoil spring. Was thinking about going for the Glock 45 BPM spring for the 27.

Just bought a glock 43x and I have shot about 300 rounds so far with it. It bums me out almost every time because it jumps so much even with a tight combat grip and most of the times, I honestly don’t know where the bullet hit. I’m gonna look into this this tungsten guide rod and hope it helps with the recoil.

​@@bordiguywhole lot of copium

Changing a fucking guide rod isn't going to make you good at the game

@@bordiguy you just gotta learn how to grip the gun my dude. tight tight grip with your hands in the correct position. it's proven time and time again that the 43x's recoil is perfectly controllable if you know how to grip.

@@bordiguy Learn how to manage the recoil correctly before you buy things that mitigate the recoil

And friendly enough to sell you useless things like grip plugs and tungsten guide rods.

@@barrygoldwater2441 exactly what I was thinking about! If it isn't broken don't fix it. 🍻

@@barrygoldwater2441 😂😂😂😂 💯

He's selling you stuff you won't need. The factory guide rod is good enough unless you planning to singlehandedly bring on Armageddon.

1911 are not even CLOSE to a glock in a reliability. You must be new to 1911's ... If the 1911 gets dirty that thing is going to JAM. Also the 1911 had failure to feed with certain .45 acp self defence ammo. Takes WAY longer to break in a NEW 1911.

@@AlwaysAiming not new I’ve owned one since I was 21 and now 51. Where I agree that if you get your tolerances too close like so many people do, yes any gun will be unreliable. There different reason to like any gun for that matter, but it just depends on what you want. Saying a Glock will fill any and all rolls is like saying all you need is a butter knife when a very sharp steak knife is really what you need, yes a butter knife will get the job done, but is better to have the right tool for the job.

I can't say why YOU buy a 500 - 700 dollar gun and gradually upgrade it. But I would because I don't have the money for a $1300 pistol outright, but I do recognize that I should be carrying one. One might buy a $500 glock that costs 3x more, but it is 1000x more reliable than the bryco Arms Jennings model, 9mm that made them an expert at remedial action, clearing the jam, Assembly and disassembly. One might buy a very notably reliable Glock 17 because they're new, and "that's what the cops use", and the glock is simple. Comparatively they have no clue what all those leavers buttons, switches, cut grooves, and holes on the $2700 Staccato mean, or do. Personally, I'm upgrading my glock because Intend it to be a hunting side arm. I anticipate if I need to shoot a bear I got too close to or that just thinks me and whatever I shot both looked like a nice little meal to him; I'm not going to suddenly turn to dead eye dick Cool hand Luke or Buster Scruggs. So I need a 10 mm panic cannon that can handle those hard cast round. And not break my wrists. So I don't want a factory barrel. I want a match barrel with a compensator to keep that nose as close to level as possible. I don't just want to shoot AT it and hope it gets scared away. I need to shoot, hit, and kill the bear. 15rds of underwood from a g40 will probably get it done. But that's just me. I 100% agree with you. It's all about what you want and why do you want it. The hell cat is to get off me gun for hoodlums. The G40 is the get off me gun for bears. My gun snob gun? Well, I can't afford that yet. So for now, it's a get off me gun for the city and a get off me gun for the woods.... Glocks will do just fine

Bruh, there are extra upgrades for that $1300 gun too... Some people are never 'done with it'. Not me, I barely ever replace anything on guns. Sure, I buy mags or optics, maybe sights, rail attachments, etc, but don't typically muck around with the internals. I did buy one of these tungsten doohickeys because I also bought a 10mm barrel for my G21 from these guys. I figured the tungsten guid rod would help with hotter 10mm loads. But that is my one exception I usually don't muck around with the internals.... But like you said.. rTo each his own though. Also, I've come across many a gun that is absolutely perfect... except... there's just this one thing. Oh, I can just get an aftermarket part to $75 that fixes it? OK! So I mean, I'm just saying if they're thinking about what they 'really want', it could be that the glock is like 99% there but for whatever reason they really need that $75 tungsten guide rod to make it a solid 100.

just get a shadow systems and boom, upgraded glock

Nonsense lol

@@nova68cutie how to scam people

It works equally well on other brands that have that available and it does more than improve accuracy.

Thanks y’all I never just trust the seller

Is the 15lb spring recommended for the Glock 19 gen 3? Not sure which one to get.

​@MrAlexMonaco22 Just try it, I have a 13lbs spring and it jams all the time, doesn't go into battery.

I agree with you and other channels who have said to just keep it stock and train. Only things you really need to add on is a better iron sight and/or red dot if you really want it.

@@darkedge117 One can buy a Glock that comes direct from the factory with iron sights. The problem is that the individual FFL orders the guns from Glock with their plastic sights.

Well, when people want to sell something......they'll say "You gotta get it." IMO, a company like Glock spends millions of $$$$$ on design & testing to make one of the most reliable guns in the world & people actually think they can improve on it with a few parts. The only part I change on some of my guns is the sights. That won't affect functioning.

Exactly CE !! thousands of rounds of practice a year will improve user recoil management, not a slightly heavier rod.

@@ccshow5269 yeah. This guys only been dealing with gun improvements for over 35 years. What could he possibly know?

nothing wrong with improving your tools, so long as they're still reliable. BUT i do think that being proficient with the gun in its stock form first is better than relying on aftermarket parts to improve your shooting. its why i decided against getting a spring kit for my p320 trigger. i wasnt very accurate with it and was considering lightening up the trigger, but decided that i really just dont have enough trigger time with it. plus, with the reputation they are getting from having accidental discharges, i didnt want to mess with the trigger at all lol

Correct no need to fix what is not broken... However Lenny is a millionaire because he convinced people better,a little better,isn't real expensive and easy to do .... I call it the f/with gene .... Alot of folks what a Glock,but they want the best Glock for them ...... Human nature

@@nova68cutie probably nothing considered he lived in commiefornia the entire time

which Lb spring did you get?

@@poloboy6hunna446 Get a set of tuning springs and test yourself. You guys dont have the same grip and the recoil wont feel the same to you guys.. Its all about getting the gun to do the work.. it should return to zero by itself. As long as it doesn't change the timing on the slide too much.

I’ve noticed no difference with mine. Waste of money.

@@LIONTAMER3Dglock 17s are pretty accurate, not to mention the guy in the video says the same thing about accuracy🤣

@@itsbombshell1332 he's shilling, dummy

@Jon M lol so you do not recommend switching it out ?

Did you also change the recoil spring? The guide rod bears very little force so I couldn't imagine switching the guide rod alone making a big difference.

@@SushiArmageddon new guide rod comes with a new spring.

@@chrisd5758 ah ok, then that probably explains things better than the rod itself.

@@chrisd5758 what I've read about these is that the tungsten actually wears the spring quicker. It may help with recoil but the part will not last as long. Not a problem as long as you are aware and plan accordingly. The advantage of a non captured spring system is that you can just change the spring when it wears out.

From where you purchased tungstens rod? Plz let me know from which online store we can buy Glock assessories

@@sharjeelbutt4217the Glock store

@@ilovehotdogs125790 you need to do research before you look like a dummy on the internet

Foolish. You don't need a steel or tungsten guide rod unless you're fighting a war singlehandedly or you firing over 1000 rounds in one sitting. Until then the plastic is good enough for normal uses.

What's OEM?

how is it?

I have a Glock 23 now and looking to get a Glock 19 next. Did you replace all the parts with factory oem ones or what brand did you go with on the sights and the guide rods?

Good to know

Yeah, $90 is a lot of bread to lay no discernible difference.

Agreed. I leave the internals of my Glocks stock. If Glock engineers thought a tungsten guide rod was better, they would've installed it from the factory. The only thing I change on my Glocks are the stock sights.

@@thomasorchard you can say that about everything and be wrong too. Improvements can be made on everything. Cost and weight were the factors in the factory setup. If ok with a bit more weight for improved recoil control this is good upgrade.

Get an extended slide lock!

First thing I do with my Glocks is install extended slide release and extended slide lock. This will help.

Years ago a company even made a counterweight that mounted on the accessory rail of any handgun. Supposedly did the same thing. But they have made custom guide rods for many guns for years. There is a company named Galloway precision that even makes custom rods and parts for cheaper guns like rugers

@@winexprt standard. I have a couple thousand rounds through it. Probably should have sent it back because it does appear to be a smidge longer than the stock rod so perhaps it is hesitating when the spring stacks up. Bummer because I like the spring weight and all metal build quality.
