Canman Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Stock or aftermarket. I've been thinking about filling one with lead to see what it will weigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarge Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 I melted lead into my XDM rod. Not sure what it weighs but gun is well under production limit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Out of Ammo Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 I've also filled one with lead and it worked well. Also, I bought one from Powder River. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JGus Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 In my XDm 5.25's i'm using a Canyon Creek tungsten guide rod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsu96 Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Aftermarket from PRP. For those that filled their hollow guide rod with lead, any idea what the weight of the filled guide rod is? I'd like to compare it to the solid one I have from PRP and wonder if the filled rod weighs more... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WmKerle Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 I'm running a Powder River Precision Solid Stainless Steel Guide Rod in my XDM 5.25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterboy Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 In my main 5.25 I'm using a canyon creek tungsten guide rod. In my back up gun is a tungsten insert from springer precision. Only reason they both don't have a canyon creek guide rod is Rich didn't have any available when I set up my back up gun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
