AWZ1387 Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 (edited) I went to the range today and while cleaning my glock 34 I noticed that there is some wear on the jager guide rod. One side of the base the finish worn off and it is slightly flattened. There is also a couple of scratch marks next to the flattened area. I don't see any new wear on the barrel or frame. So I am not sure where it is rubbing/hitting. I only shot 300 rounds since installing the guide rod. I was shooting federal champion 115gr. I had a 14lbs wolff spring on the rod. I have a tti trigger kit installed, if that makes a difference. I took some photos. Photo link Edited November 10, 2019 by AWZ1387 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWfront Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 (edited) I've had half dozen Jager rods and have seen some slight scratches form and the bottom edge on one tried to burr up a little after thousands of rounds but nothing I couldn't easily knock down with a stone. This definitely looks like something isn't fit correctly to cause that kind of wear so quickly. Are you sure it's the correct rod for your generation of gun? Was it possibly not seated correctly when you installed it? Edited November 10, 2019 by NWfront Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said that he had few gen 5 guide rods go out by mistake without the proper hardening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gtwralph Posted November 10, 2019 Share Posted November 10, 2019 I had the same thing happen to two of my guide rods. Jager exchanged both of my guide rods and all is good. Great customer service ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jager1147 Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Hey guys, Looks like I goofed up. somehow some of my Gen. 5 rods (either G17G5CS or G17G5CSH) slipped through without the proper heat treat. Some, not all. You'll know immediately if all the color comes off. My greatest apologies, and I'll replace them if you were unlucky enough to get one of these from me. Just ship it back, and I'll include a recoil spring of your choice to cover the shipping back. Sorry...…. Thanks, Jager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
