DPM Recoil Reduction System for Sig Sauer P226 X-Short

If you own a Sig P226 X-Short — whether it’s the Competition, Tactical, or Allround model — and you want to control recoil, preserve your frame, and boost shooting performance, the DPM Mechanical Recoil Reduction System is your answer.

This system isn’t just a guide rod replacement — it’s a performance upgrade that transforms how your P226 X-Short handles under pressure.

🔧 Built for Precision and Control

The Sig P226 X-Short has a compact slide with unique cycling dynamics. While that shorter profile increases speed, it also makes recoil management more important. The DPM system uses a multi-spring design that stages recoil force, reducing felt impact and improving return-to-battery time.

This gives you flatter shooting, less wear on your slide and frame, and tighter control — whether you’re on the range, in a match, or carrying it for tactical use.
