Looks like this topic has been in the dust bin for a few years. Let's revive it, OK? I am soon replacing the plastic [short] guide rod with a stainless steel one and a new 14lb factory spring in my CZ 75B. I am doing this because the CZ is an all metal gun and a plastic guide rod just seems like an affront to nature. LOL
Nothing I have read would lead me to believe that any unwanted consequences would happen with this change out. Judging the price difference between new plastic vs. stainless guide rods - CZ USA could save a few bucks per unit with a plastic part that is never seen except during cleaning. Not saying this is accurate but it does give this consumer a moment for pause. TA-DA! Now for the question. Has anyone else made this change out on their CZ and what has been your experience with it? Thanks. Pops
