Irony of ironies. I work in a machine shop. However it is very corporate and I'm not a machinist.

I am hoping to have some guide rods made for some Beretta pistols (PX4, PX4 compact, PX4 subcompact, & 8000L Cougar).

It would be entirely turn work. I'm pretty confident that the grade of steel here isn't too important, but something like 304 would make me happy.

I'd prefer somebody local so that we can test fit the parts.

All of those pistols use a captive guide rod assembly, but it doesn't have to be a captive design. Bonus of we can turn a plastic (nylon, delrin, pvdf, etc) bushing to protect the slide from a bare spring.

I was willing to pay roughly 25$ each online but the supplier doesn't have a convenient way to pay and never responded to my email.

Let me know if you are interested.
