KynSHOT PB6004 Hydraulic Guide Rod Features The KynSHOT PB6004 Hydraulic Guide Rod installs as a direct drop in replacement for the factory guide rod assembly on a Glock 17 slide requiring no modification to the rest of the pistol. Its hydraulic damping system manages slide velocity and movement throughout the cycling process which is what drives the reduction in felt recoil by roughly 70 percent. Slowing the slide down also cuts general wear and tear on the frame and slide rails over time extending the service life of the pistol. Fast shot recovery of around half a second keeps the sights on target longer between shots for faster more controlled follow up shots. Constructed entirely from high strength 17-4 stainless steel the guide rod is manufactured using military grade materials and processes to military spec hydraulic fluids and seals. This construction also makes it corrosion resistant a benefit for firearms carried or stored in humid or harsh environments. Reducing slide speed and movement has the secondary benefit of reducing optic vibration for shooters running a red dot on their Glock 17. At 2.96 inches in length the guide rod is purpose built for Glock 17 Gen5 slides and like models for sale at GrabAGun.
