Hey. How are you.

Just wanted to see if anybody replaced the Guide Rod on their gen4 glock. I was looking through glockworld.com and saw this http://glockstore.com/pgroup_descrip/7/7040_Heavy+Tungsten+Guide+Rod/

And this

I know Old School and other resident glock gurus don't like noobs messing with stock options but .... While I shoot my g19 I experience somewhat uncomfortable recoil and muzzle jump. I do realize that I need more practice with it however I do not have such issues with my other pistols (all of them in .40s&w ) ..... so with "I" being at least 50% of the problem, do you think that replacing guide rod with a heavier one will help a lil? Thank you.

The tungsten one is pricey, but it is noticeably heavier than stock. I imagine it would help a bit. I am going to get one for my G29 because the stock spring sends my brass thirty feet away and with a nice ejector ding.

I have a Glockmeister tungsten rod on my Gen3 G19 and it does help to tame muzzle flip a bit. I have several thousand rounds thru my G19 and haven't had any issues with it.
