Thank You Mr. Smith for your time, knowledge and skill.

Check your specs... 1911 Pistol barrel "OD" = ".580 to.581" + .001"
... Gunsmith bushing "ID"= .575"...ream to fit
"OD"= .699-.703" ("over .703" takes a "custom bushing"...I have had up to .710" fabricated for Odd ball situations)
To the fellow with the Kimber...have your 'smith make sure to relieve the ID of the bushing to eliminate "barrel spring which can cause vertical stringing of your bullets on your target."

"So shall it be written, so shall it be true." With thanks to Chuck Heston, if Barry says, do it. He probably knows more about 1911s than JMB. There. I said it.

Hoov...Thank G-d there is no rain in the forecast! My head swells in wet weather, and with excessive smoke blown up my "A**"... it makes it tough going through narrow doorways -lol

Be well,
