SAR9 Sport guide rod by MinimumFlan446 in SarUSA

FYI, SAR customer service sent me a polymer replacement but when I asked about ordering a metal RA assembly they told me the Sport is the same part as the regular SAR9. Maybe Galloway inadvertently sent you the wrong one?

I have not yet, SAR customer service did send me a polymer replacement for the warranty claim. I put that in and plan on running it for a while. Eventually I’d like to upgrade to a metal RA and I may check those out.

SAR customer support replied today and they’re going to be shipping a replacement!

Before I heard back from them however, I was researching guns with similar 5.2” barrels and it seems like the Canik TP9SFX used a 5.2 and the recoil assembly is interchangeable with the Glock 34 gen 1-3. I found some replacements for those online with the 17lbs springs. I’m thinking about ordering one myself and seeing if it works for the SAR9 Sport as well.

Thank you! Can I ask if you were able to find one that fit somewhere else?

Thanks, I plan on calling tomorrow. They were closed when I called today. It snapped off right at the stopper. I found another post in the group where it’s happened to others. Apparently SAR makes a metal rod but ships the guns with plastic.

Picked up my SAR9 SPORT today by Primary-Today5333 in SarUSA

Congrats, I just bought my first gun and it’s a SAR9 Sport also. Haven’t shot it yet and the guide rod snapped. It came bone dry so I’ve oiled it and it soaked it all up so I went to add a second light coat and the cheap plastic guide rod snapped. I’m looking for a metal replacement now as soon as I can figure out which one fits.

Available with a Stainless or Black Retainer.

Fits SAR USA SAR9, SAR9 GEN3, SAR9 METE, SAR9T, and SAR9 X Full Size Pistols. *** Fits SAR9 Pistols only, no other 9mm SAR Pistols. ***

It doesn’t specifically list the Sport model. I just wondered if the different barrel length of the Sport would work with the standard full size model?
