I have seen a couple of posts on a replacement guide rod for the SC9 and am wondering when it will be avail? my SUBCOMPACT RECOIL ASSEMBLY is starting to wear and mushroom over slightly where it fits into the barrel notch and am considering a replacement but would rather wait and get one from Don's

I am also waiting for one. Post availability if you can make one.

No timeline from me yet, but it is clear there is a demand. There are a few member helping, but I may be forced to buy a SC just to try things myself.

Don's sent me some great info, I'm gonna be working on the spring thing.
I have a SC-9 on order, and it SHOULD be in, in two weeks.

With any luck, a prototype rod and spring will be ready by then.

This DOESN"T mean this will be a final product, even IF it works.
Quality and Edurance testing will need to be done.

That will be entirely up to Don, and will have to meet his standard.
