That is a very nicely done explanation. I wish I'd had that the first time I ripped everything apart. One thing that I do a bit differently - Bob Rodgers wrote an article a while back about stripping and cleaning your 1911. He recommends NOT having it in battery when turning the barrel bushing - but having something that won't mar the finish in the ejection port so that the slide is back a bit. This'll keep a nice tight custom fit barrel nice and tight.



My $0.02 worth...

When you shoot it only load the mag with a couple rounds to test first. Full auto 1911 probably isn't fun when your not expecting it.

I found a YouTube video which is actually pretty good. There are two videos, one for Disassembly, and one for Reassembly.

Dissasembly:



Reassembly:



Hope you find them as helpful as I did.

It sounds intimidating but once you do it once and learn the little tricks its easy. I enjoy detail stripping my 1911s and feel extremely satisfied after a thorough cleaning. Only thing better than a clean 1911 is a hot dirty one. (same could be said for women )

Woo Hoo...I just used the link posted by and took her down to the frame and it went back together easier than I thought!

Didn't have to take to a gunsmith in a box......
