Mr.
Pro: Looks great. Con: Several FTF, at least one every mag. I have the 4.5 inch barrel SR22. No issues with factory spring/guide, but almost every magazine had a FTF with the Tandemkross. I switched back at the range, and the FTFs were gone. Reading several reviews, it seems this is common for the 4.5 SR22.

Great Product!!!
Great quality product. Easy to install. While I never had any issues with the factory plastic guide rod I just like the idea of a steel one with a captured spring.

Lots of FTF's
I have a couple thousand rounds through my original SR22 with maybe a handful of FTF's in that whole load using all kinds of ammo. Put in this replacement rod and spring and now have two or more FTF's with every mag. Frustrating, as I left my stock rod and spring at home and moved to FL for the winter. Gotta find a stock spring and rod somehow now..

Helped with low cost ammo
I was having a problem with FTL and FTE on my SR22 with Federal round nose ammo. It seems to fail on every round. After researching the problem on-line, I learned that replacing the return spring polymer rod with a steel rod fixes it. After getting this one, instead of failures every round, I got only 4 failures in 40 rounds. This was a very inexpensive fix.

Wish it worked
I have the 3.5" SR22 and this did not work in mine. Spring pressure is about half of the stock spring and doesn't keep the slide in battery. Customer service is excellent, said they visually checked another and sent unit with same results. After 2 attempts it appears they have a batch of defective springs. First time to be disappointed with TK.

it works
was not completely happy with the way the pistol shot stock and there is not a whole lot of after market performance items for the SR22. Installed the Sentinel rod and spring kit and accuracy did improve! Shipping was very fast and build quality is great, highly recommended
