| When I remove the slide on my G21 the rear circle portion of the rod isn't seated in the little half circle notch. Is this normal? |

The recoil spring assembly does not stay in the assembly notch on the barrel when it is installed on the frame. When you put the slide on the frame it slides into the recoil spring tunnel on the frame. When you take the slide off, the guide rod head catches on the slide lock notch of the barrel. Whenever you take the slide off be sure to push the guide rod back into the assembly notch, or the guide rod head can snag on the slide lock and break. |
