Whether you’re a concealed carrier or frequent range-goer, the OEM RSA helps prevent short-stroking and erratic ejection—two symptoms of worn springs.
Fast, No-Gunsmithing Install
Drop-in replacement during routine field strip. If you can clean your G43, you can replace this part in minutes.

Installation (Quick Guide)
Unload & Verify Clear. Remove mag; visually/physically inspect chamber.
Field Strip. Remove slide from frame; take out barrel.
Replace RSA. Lift out old assembly; seat the new OEM RSA against the barrel lug with the correct orientation.
Reassemble & Function Check. Cycle the slide by hand, perform a trigger reset check (dry), and verify full return-to-battery.
Range Confirm. Test with your carry ammo and practice loads to confirm reliable cycling.
Care & Best Practices
Keep it OEM: Pair with factory-spec parts for predictable timing.
Clean Wisely: Wipe carbon from the RSA during cleaning; do not soak springs in harsh solvents.
Inspect Regularly: Look for kinks, coil set, or bent guide rod—replace at the first sign of wear.
Verify After Any Change: Anytime you change ammo, lube, or slide-mounted accessories, re-confirm reliability.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Will this work in a G43X or G48?
A: No. #33379 is specifically tuned for the G43. The G43X/G48 use a different recoil system and slide length.
Q: Is this assembly captive?
A: Yes. It is a captive dual-spring unit—no loose parts during install.
Q: Do I need a gunsmith to install it?
A: Not typically. If you can field-strip your Glock, you can install this RSA. If you’re unsure, consult a certified armorer.
Q: Will it change recoil impulse?
A: It returns the pistol to factory-intended timing and feel. Worn springs can make recoil feel “snappier,” so many shooters notice smoother function after replacement.
