The Tandemkross Sentinel Guide Rod (part no. TK23N0348SSL1) is a replacement recoil spring guide rod built for the Smith & Wesson Victory .22 pistol, sold by Tandemkross. Machined from stainless steel, it resists corrosion better than a standard steel guide rod over years of cleaning and use. Its captured design keeps the recoil spring and guide rod together as a single assembly, so the pistol can be field stripped and reassembled without the spring and rod separating or launching loose, a common annoyance with non-captured factory setups. Because it is machined specifically for the Victory’s recoil spring channel, it installs as a direct swap without any fitting. This is a practical maintenance and convenience upgrade for Victory owners.

Key Specifications

• Machined from stainless steel for corrosion resistance.
