If you would send the picture, I'm sure it may help my gunsmith. I did get a print of the rod, not the tip though, and the spring specs. The guide rod is 2 pieces believe it or not. The tip end is actually pressed in to one rod end to make up the guide rod. I'm getting close to start making this up myself but so far it is tough to find a spring that is the proper length and pounds compressed and expanded that is flat on both ends.I have the keepers for the non-tip end. I can find springs close, but when cut to length, I lose the flat. If I heat it, I lose tensile. I WILL get this eventually!

Thanks Again
