Description

DPM 1911 5" Barrel Bushing 9mm NRA Recoil Reducer

The Recoil Reduction system is a straight substitute for the inventory rear rod and does not alter the configuration of the pistol. The multi-spring complicated rod (three springs) makes this system work and monitors the gun functionality. A third spring inside the rod controls the slide's movement so it doesn't wind up on the frame. This system also comes with a spring plug and five independent outside springs. When a slide is on the battery, the length of the springs is variable, the length being the longest and the shooter can adjust the weapon to its personal standards.

Features:

➼ Faster follow-up shots
➼ Improved firing speed
➼ Slide and Frame Protection
➼ Elimination of jams
➼ Significant recoil reduction
➼ Better double-tap concentration
➼ Better control and greater accuracy
