Fixes a design flaw
This is something Browning should have incorporated to begin with. Didn't take a minute to file to length and bevel the edges. Just unexpected, but enhances the customization in my opinion.

Definitely get this
The Buck Mark guide rod was built to save money and mine wasn't really fitted properly. Got this, both problems solved. If you've never fit a part before, it's simple. Start with a small flat, fine file. Don't improvise, use the right tool. File in one direction only, don't scrub with it. File slowly. File straight - perpendicular to the guide rod. Use reading glasses if you want, don't be proud, you want a flat surface. File once, test and see if it's enough. Repeat until you can just see daylight between the guide rod and the bolt face. End result is a slide that travels a lot easier and smoother than before you started. Take pride in your work, you just improved your Buck Mark to no end.

Simple solution!
Easy to install and use, and worth twice the price. Wish I had thought of it...

Good idea
Great idea. Needs some refining. Had to take about 1/16 of a inch off to fit. It was a little too long. Havent had any issues with it other than that

Recoil Spring Guide Rod
Works much better than the plastic ones that Browning sells. A bit of a finagle to get it installed. Nothing we can't handle.

Fantastic Upgrade
After firing several thousand rounds through my Buckmark URX, and multiple tear downs and cleans I kept thinking there has to be an easier design than the clip that disappears and fighting with my pistol to reassemble. Now it is just use a paperclip and it is easy as pie. Took my fun-to-shoot, but I-will-suffer-for-it-later-pistol, to fun to shoot and not much more difficult than cleaning my striker-style pistols. This is one of the best upgrades along with the talon ejector that I have ever purchased from my pistol. Took a Browning design flaw and made it better.

Guide rod
C-clip? What c-clip? Never seen one. My theory is that the first time I cleaned it after about 700 rounds, and installed the fire starter firing pin, the thing flew off someplace. In any case, I got this, it is easier to reassemble, and it just might cycle better. Gun works perfectly in any case.

Recoil guide
Installation was easy. There was a little filing but I expected that. The item works really well.
