Default Re: 1911 collet bushing?

Hello,

I just want to mention a few facts.

-First The collet Bushing it is prone to breakage, But...

-The collet Bushing is for use with a oversized muzzle barrel, therfore the 4 springs on this type of bushing, open and close, each time you move the slide back and forward, that`s why it tend to breakeage.

-And last i can assure you the use of this Collet Bushing, if you use it on a standar barrel (with not a oversized muzzle), is not so tight but you feel a remarcable diference on the lock up, with out putting much pressure on the 4 spring.

I have use it that way long enough with out problems.

P.D. Believe it or not, both type of barrels have almost the same muzzle size
