Frequently Asked Questions

Is this bushing compatible with 1911 pistols that have a custom frame?

Yes, as long as the frame follows the standard Commander dimensions, the bushing will fit perfectly. For heavily modified frames, verify the bushing pocket dimensions before purchase.

Can I use this bushing with .22 LR conversion kits?

The bushing itself is compatible, but the recoil spring may need adjustment based on the conversion kit’s specifications. Consult your conversion kit manufacturer for recommended spring tension.

Will the stainless steel finish affect the slide’s appearance?

The polished stainless steel provides a sleek, professional look while maintaining a protective matte coating that resists fingerprints and tarnish.
