For all you *stock* Glock owners...

Maybe I'm in the wrong place?


Anyway, question at hand is this: Has anyone ever worn out, chewed up, or otherwise damaged a recoil guide rod on a Glock pistol? The only reason I ask is that I seem to have chewed off the "nail head" on my guide rod...completely! The spring falls right off the end of the rod. I understand this is not unusual for an old spring and rod assembly, but this one has seen less than 3,000 rounds fired since the last spring change.

It worried me for a minute, but neither I nor my gunsmith can find anything it can catch on in that area, and it slides cleanly and quietly, so it boils down to just regular wear as best we can tell. His rod didn't show any signs of abuse after 24 rounds, so....
