Bushing just slightly too long. I needed to file each one down just a little to keep it from protruding into the magazine well. Not a problem as most M1911A1 parts need to be fitted.
Bushings Made the Way they Should Be(05/02/2013)
Bushing holes in the Frame must be chamferred on the inside for proper swaging. The EGW bushings are made slightly longer so that they will have enough length to flare properly into the inside hole chamfers. Unless these holes are chamferred on the inside, the bushing will not flare out for a proper and secure fastening. Using a bushing swaging/flaring tool without first chamferring the inside Frame holes is a waste of time! Also, to avoid chipping the heads of any bushing, always use a tap to clean up the Frame hole threads and make sure that the interior of the bushing installation bit is not worn. NEVER use a screwdriver to install a bushing, as this is a sure way to chip the head of any make of Bushing! It is unfair to criticize these parts because the user does not know how to install them properly! I always use EGW parts for customer's and my own personal pistols, because they are simply the best!!
Quality Product & Easy to Install(02/01/2014)
I messed up a screw and bushing attempting to install a Pachmayr Finger Groove grip on my Colt Government 38 Super. I ordered a set of the stainless bushings along with the matching hex screws.
Taking the advise of one of the reviewers I also ordered a bushing tool which made the removal and installation of the new bushings a snap.
These looked and functioned so well I removed all the three good bushings and used this complete set of bushings and screws.
I would highly recommend the stainless bushing & hex screws and certainly add one of those bushing tools to your order if you do not have one.
