TESTIMONIALS

Neal, I was going to write you a note this morning, you beat me to the punch! I finally had a chance to shoot this past weekend, and I was totally blown away by how smooth the gun felt and the reduction in the flip up. I am not an every day shooter, but I could tell an immediate increase in my accuracy and speed. I can't wait to see what some practice will do for me.

I can not thank you and your wife enough for the time you spent working on my pistol. It was above and beyond the call, and despite your comment that it's customer service, I feel that you went far beyond what any person would reasonably expect, and I thank you for it.

I will be spreading the word about you and your product, I have a few Glock friends that will get a few shots out of my pistol to see the difference it makes.

Thank you again sir!

Neal, I finally got your recoil guide tested with the 14 lb. spring, and I must tell you that I was surprised that there was that much noticeable reduction in recoil and muzzle flip with that spring weight. Gun is more controllable and there is less vibration felt thru the frame when shot is fired. Good job. I'm curious, when you tried the heavier and standard 17 lb spring weight was recoil and muzzle flip reduced further or did it feel the same as the 14 lb spring? Also, how many rounds before recoil spring needs to be replaced? Regards

Neal:

Hi Neal,
You may not remember me but I live in Barbados and I received my Dead Bang
Recoil reducing System for my Glock 35 in early November 2007. I was about
to sell my Glock 35 to buy a 1911 frame pistol because I shoot IPSC and the
recoil was bad, I found firing shots in rapid succession was useless because
the first shot would be on but the second shot was all over the place. I
came across your website when I was researching recoil reduction for Glocks.
To tell the truth I was just taking a chance, as I know many products
promise plenty but deliver very little.

I received and installed your recoil reducer rod, which was petty
straightforward by the way. While breaking it in, I did have a few jams and
feed problems, not to mention the gun was hard to rack, I guess due to the
22 LB Extra Power Wolff Spring but after firing 200 to 300 rounds, I can now
rack it easy, the Jams and feed problems sorted itself out within about 100
to 150 rounds.

I shot my first match with the new system in Mid December after breaking the
gun in. This is when I started felling and seeing the difference.. I have
never shot "Snake eyes" before since owning the gun but in my first matchI
was surprised when I got snake eyes on two targets. I find I can double tap
(Rapid Fire) and both my shots are on and close, the nozzle flip is less and
the felt recoil tamer. When I watch videos of my shoot, my gun hardly moves,
I¹ll send you a link to Youtube when I upload some video.

Actually I am shooting a lot better, I¹m more accurate and my scores and
standing prove it. I used to be middle in my Class which is C but now I¹m
anyway from 2nd to 6th and improving. In as much as I know most 1911 frame
guns Shoots well, I have reconsidered and I¹m going to stick with the Glock
for the time being as it¹s shooting extremely well.

Neal, thanks you were very helpful in the pre sales area, helping me to make
up my mind in deciding to try your Rod. I am glad I gave it a try, it keeps
getting better. If your R&D come up with even the slightest improvement on
the rod, I¹ll be the first to try it. Thanks again for allowing my to save
$2000.00 by not have to buy a new gun.

Neal – I wanted to drop you a line regarding the trigger/action work you recently performed on my Glocks as well as your recoil rods. As a competitive shooter from the silhouette world I am far more accustomed to exotic triggers from Dewey, Taylor and Jewel in the 1 to 6oz range and properly balanced handguns that either negate or minimize muzzle rise. In other words – the exact opposite of everything a stock Glock is. The Glocks have always been "fun little guns" for me, but not anything I took too seriously. With their (comparatively speaking) heavy, sloppy triggers combined with the pronounced muzzle rise from a lighter handgun (especially in the 10mm and up) they were never handguns that I was particularly fond of. After the installation of your recoil rod, buffer pad, trigger parts and polishing work I can honestly say that these are now different guns than they were before. The trigger is far smoother with less take up and releases cleanly and consistently at the same weight. The pull is light enough to make proper trigger control automatic instead of a deliberate effort – without being too light for a tactical pistol. The critical improvement, in my opinion, is the consistent and predictable muzzle rise – or lack thereof. With proper gun control getting back on target immediately is a non-issue. This greatly enhances the effectiveness of this handgun in any situation – even with less experienced shooters. I would not buy another Glock nor recommend one to anyone without insisting that these modifications be made before firing the first round. Thanks!

Neal, I appreciate your product. It arrived quickly and it installed with no problems (except with a small hitch on my part. You can place this testimonial on your website. "This product is phenomenal. Initially, I could not tell the difference between the recoil impulse from the stock rod and the dead bang rod. The difference is on the follow up shots. My groups were definitely a lot tighter after changing over to the dead bang guide rod. I actually think this is ideal because the gun feels exactly the same but is shooting much more accurately now. I think the package you put together of the guide rod, Wolff spring and recoil buffer is the total package. Well worth the money.

I PURCHASED TWO OF THE NEW IMPROVED RECOIL RODS FROM YOU A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. JUST HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO FINALLY TRY ONE OUT THIS PAST WEEKEND. ALL I CAN SAY ABOUT THIS NEW ROD IS "WOW" , IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE IN CONTROLLING THE GUN A LOT EASIER. AT FIRST I WAS HESITANT ABOUT THE PURCHASE. BUT AFTER TRYING IT OUT ON MY GLOCK 19 , I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO TRYING IT OUT ON MY GLOCK 23. ALL I CAN SAY IS " SHAME ON THOSE WHO PASS UP ON GETTING ONE" , IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE!!!!!! I WOULD RECOMMEND THIS UPGRADE TO ANY GLOCK OWNER!!

Dear Neal:
I am happy that you started a testimonial page because I would like my story told. My husband and I have been shooting for years and from our training our handguns were always the same: same calibers, magazines, etc. This way if there ever was a problem slides, parts, especially loaded magazines would be nonexistent. We decided to switch barrels from using our G23 Glocks with 40 S&W to .357 Sig caliber. My husband did not have a problem with the conversion. Recoil etc. fell into place for him but I could not handle the recoil plus I developed other problems: my secondary sight picture was nonexistent. The recoil was so bad it actually hurt my hands to shoot. I thought that I would have to give up the .357 Sig round and return to the 40 S&W. Then we would be like everyone else no compatibility for our defensive handguns. Now for the good news. I purchased your recoil rod system and I am now using the .357 Sig round fluently. Great secondary sight acquisition, fantastic and fast reset on my shots, and the pain that I was experiencing is gone. Thank you so much for producing a product that not only works but has kept our family a single round use family again.

The recoil rod works excellent. My groups are tighter, I mean all shots are in the 10 and 9 ring during double tabs and rapid fire. Hardly any felt recoil from my 9mm. You were right Neal. This is the best recoil rod out there at the moment and I happen to have them all so I can make that statement. Thanks for a well made product and I look for to doing business with you soon. Keep up the good work. Thanks again for the fine trigger work, recoil rod and just all around good old customer service.

I have a reference that is a reference to beat all references. I purchased the rod and got a trigger job for a Model 32, .357 Sig. First of all with the way Neal teaches the point and shoot method relying on the reset trigger I am now able to fire my Glock equivalent to a full auto. No lie that is how fast the rounds spit out of my barrel. In fact the proof of the pudding is when I am at the range everyone wants to see my Model 18 (full auto version) and when I tell them that I had my trigger reworked for $58.00 and with a little practice they can do the same thing they stand there with their mouths open. The kicker to this is the muzzle movement when I am shooting. They cannot believe the rock hard straight line that is maintained. Again I tell and show them the special rod set up devised by you. Same reaction they stand there with their mouths open. When I purchased this gun I purchased it for self defense, Neal you not only got me there but way beyond. Last kicker, Neal explained how to use the reset trigger over the telephone and he told me how to practice it before I had even got to his range. When I arrived for my first time he smoothed out the rough edges on me and I have been rolling since.

Neal, Hello, I shot both of the new rods today and they were fantastic. The recoil reduction was even better than before and the recoil was less harsh especially in the 23. Thank you again for all of your kindness and assistance with everything. You guys are great! Let me know how the FBI testing is going.
