Description
Specification

Protect your spring, steady your shots

The Rocket (SHS) Bearing Spring Guide is a steel ball-bearing spring guide for Version 2 AEG gearboxes. Its job is to let the main spring rotate freely as it compresses and decompresses. By allowing the spring to twist rather than binding, it reduces the fatigue that leads to spring breakage and helps deliver more consistent shot-to-shot performance.

Built for upgraded builds

Machined from full stainless steel, this spring guide is strong enough to handle heavy upgrade springs, with sources reporting suitability for springs in excess of M170. That makes it a sensible upgrade for anyone running a higher-power or high rate-of-fire build where the stock guide can struggle.

Trusted Rocket (SHS) quality

The part is manufactured by SHS (Super Shooter) and is frequently boxed under the Rocket Airsoft name. It is a long-standing favourite among airsoft techs for reliable fitment and durability at a sensible price.

Direct drop-in fit

It is a direct replacement for the standard spring guide in any compatible V2 gearbox, including M4/M16 and MP5 platforms. No modification is needed, so it slots straight in during a routine rebuild or repair.

Frequently asked questions

Why fit a bearing spring guide?

The ball bearing lets the spring rotate freely as it compresses and decompresses. That reduces the twisting stress that builds up in the spring, lowering the risk of spring breakage and helping keep shots more consistent.

Which gearboxes does it fit?

It is made for the Version 2 (V2) gearbox used in M4/M16, MP5 and many other AEGs. It is a direct drop-in replacement for the standard spring guide in a V2 shell.

Can it handle upgrade springs?

Yes. The full stainless steel construction is designed to handle heavy springs, with sources reporting suitability for springs in excess of M170, making it well suited to upgraded, higher-power builds.

Is Rocket the same as SHS?

Yes. The part is manufactured by SHS (Super Shooter) and is commonly packaged under the Rocket Airsoft name. It is the same trusted component either way.

Do I need tools to fit it?

It fits inside the gearbox, so installation is part of a gearbox rebuild. If you are not comfortable opening the gearbox, our airsoft repair service in Kent can fit it for you.
