Stainless guide rod for T9??

[MarTay6]

I just got my T9, and must say I absolutely love the gun! The trigger is so smooth and sweet.... I heard it described as like that of a double-action pull on a revolver, and would have to agree... but it is so smooth- and feels so light!
When I was trying to locate one, I was watching on Gunbroker... and I noticed that there is a stainless steel guide rod out for the T9's.... what is the point? The stock one feels plenty stout and looks to be made of steel-
???
Thanks for any inputs-

It doesn't add to any functionality but some people like the looks. The visible end may even be crosshatched or such. Personal preference of the aesthetics.

Other than the cosmetics, I don't see how it could work any better than the standard guide rod. I do know it would cost more.

Put the SS guide rod on mine for looks only.
