Bushing and assembly for improved recoil guide rod assembly

Abstract

The present invention is directed to a bushing that allows for adaptation of a single spring guide rod assembly into handgun with dual spring guide rod assemblies to further allow for greater customization and control of the gun upon recoil when the chambered cartridge is discharged.

1 . A bushing for use with and in semiautomatic hand guns that restricts the recoil spring while allowing the recoil guide rod to pass through said bushings interior. 
     
     
         2 . A bushing according to  claim 1  wherein said bushing is of sufficient exterior circumference to maintain the same within the recoil system assembly channel in the firearm's frame and slide of said semiautomatic hand gun and maintain the recoils spring contained within said recoil system assembly in place therein. 
     
     
         3 . A bushing according to  claims 1  wherein said bushing has an interior passage for the semiautomatic hand guns guide rod while further comprising a means for interior retention of the semiautomatic handgun's recoil spring therein. 
     
     
         4 . A bushing assembly for use in a semi automatic hand gun in furtherance of a conversion and customization of the recoil control method wherein the same consists of a guide rod and recoil spring, herein said busing assembly comprising a proximate end, concave middle section and distal end and a manner for capture and securement of the bushing and recoil spring contained thereupon with the guide rod. 
     
     
         5 . A device allowing for the customization of semiautomatic hand guns recoil springs, comprising: a bushing, a capture screw, a single recoil spring and a single recoil guide rod, all of which serve to replace the original recoil guide rod and recoil springs. 
     
     
         6 . The bushing according to claim to  claim 5 , the bushing being of exterior circumference to contain the spring and recoil guide rod in the interior of said handgun. 
     
     
         7 . The bushing according to  claim 5 , the bushing's interior circumference being of a circumference to allow said guide rod to pass through while simultaneously restricting said spring from passing there through and thus being maintained within the confines of the semiautomatic hand gun's recoil system assembly channel in the firearm's frame and slide. 
     
     
         8 . The guide rod spring according to  claim 5  wherein said guide rod spring is of lesser diameter than the original recoil guide rod springs. 
     
     
         9 . The guide rod spring according to  claim 5  wherein said guide rod spring is of lesser diameter than the original recoil guide rod spring. 
     
     
         10 . The spring according to  claim 5  wherein said spring may be of greater compression strength than that of the original spring. 
     
     
         11 . The spring according to  claim 5  wherein said spring may be of less compression strength than that of the original spring. 
     
     
         12 . A screw according to  claim 5  wherein said screw is capable of being attached or otherwise affixed to said guide rod to capture the recoil spring in a semi-compressed state for easy installation of replacement spring.
