I noticed some odd wear or damage on my 1911 guide rod. It’s a RIA 1911 and I switched the full length guide rod to a GI guide rod a while ago, because I find it easier to field strip.
The blue thing on it is a buffer from WC.
The gun cycles fine and haven’t had any malfunctions.
Does this just look like wear because it’s a cheap part (it was cheap) or does it indicate some other issue? Any recommendations for a better guide rod?
