"Just add weight [to the regular Rival] and it would shoot the same. Yup...that's just what I did. Managed to get a brand new Rival for $560 (using various coupons/sale..)...then online got a brass backstrap and brass mag well that both added a nice amount of weight (so ;likely shoots almost exactly same) and made the gun look super-cool. The options together were about 200, so brought the cost to close to the same...but whatever..it's just an option for Rival owners who want to step up an already great gun!
I've heard this quite a bit from many different shooters. It seems polymer seems to be the go to among pistols that have an equivalent polymer version.

Did that to mine and added a Rune Tactical full length guide rod and a 11# recoil spring, tamed the recoil.
@@biker1958What lb of guide rod did you buy?
@ 11#
@@biker1958 and where did you buy them?
@ I also bought a full length ss guide rod along with the spring, from Rune Tactical.
I have a few pistols, by far the S , is my favorite pistol.
Thanks for watching!
extra camera is a fun touch
Thank you sir
Good job thank you so much
Thanks for watching!
Rival S feels alot heavier and thus slower to transition, polymer feels better weighted and more natural and easier in comfort.

Steel frame any day! The Rival S is a bargain.
