How do I get the Barrel bushing to stay tight to the slide?
I have a Sistema 45 ACP 1911 and have fitted a bushing, but all the bushings I have always leave a small gap between the bushing and slide on this pistol.
So does someone make a barrel bushing with a thicker lug on the bushing? (Idea is to fit the lug)
Or a barrel bushing with the lug closer to the front face flange?
Or is there some other trick to fitting the barrel bushing? I suspect that my slide is out of spec or on the high end of the spec.
I know egw has bushings with the thicker flange but is the flange thicker away or closer to the lug?
