This thread is in no way intended to be just YET another buff debate. Use them, or don't, whichever camp wherein you pitch your tent. If we absolutely must have YET another discussion of the ins and outs of using them, and their various iterations, this is best undertaken in the Parts Bin, fellers.Originally Posted by manderson
The controversial little gizmo is, as Bud said, on the breech end of the guide rod, between the guide rod and the recoil spring. The soft, urethane ones, which come in 5", non-TRS guns do not last 500rds and will disintegrate, leaving shards of urethane around the innerds of your dustcover. The reason I parenthesized (Ed Brown) above, is because the ones Les uses curiously resemle the ones from Brown. To my knowledge, Les isn't in possession of urethane injection equipment.
Yes, Les frequently recommeds removal and not replacement.
