Glock 17 Gen 5 – Guide Rod Assembly – Stainless Steel
PLEASE DOUBLE CHECK DETAILS AND FITMENT BEFORE PURCHASE.
Rival Arms makes this stainless steel guide rod assembly for Glock 17 Gen 5 pistols as a fully assembled replacement setup with a premium stock-weight spring. It is a direct aftermarket answer for shooters who want a stronger steel guide rod in place of the factory plastic unit.
This one is for the full-size Glock 17 Gen 5 platform. Not the Glock 19. Not the slimlines. Not the “it looked close on the internet” special.
