Would it be advisable to install a stainless guide rod on my new mdl 30?

Me, I would leave the gun stock until you have used it a bunch.

No. Not unless you broke your stock one during reassembly and can't get a replacemenet for some reason.

it is a nice way of saying you posted in the wrong forum.

Things in this one generally have electricity as a component.

Linux will usually be found in your computer.

You have to admit though... "I'm new to Glocks,, what is a Linux".. was hysterical, even if he didn't mean it. :)

ONLY if you have enough RAM.

But I still don't know what an mdl 30 is...
And why would I want to run Linux on it?

I'm starting to switch to PC-BSD. Do I need to change my username?

An understandable mistake. There is nothing about "Tech Talk" that implies that it is electronics exclusive.

Of course there's not.... but it's still fun when someone falls into the Nerd Trap...

I say we petition BGH to change the forum to "Computers and Gadgets Help"... since we often talk about cell phones, GPS's, etc..

:thumbsup: You're not the first person this happened to. :)

I have a number of Glocks(oldest being about 9yrs old) and all of them have the stock recoil spring, and have never been a problem.

Someone swap TBO's stainless steel guide rod manual with a lasagna recipe again?

Max out the RAM first, then double check the resolution before installing a new guide rod.

j/k....I've got a metal guide rod in a couple glocks...haven't noticed a difference either way.
