So, I'm having Colt start the custom job on my 1911. They are doing the "Tactical Package". I am also having them add a long trigger, replace all MIM parts and add a match grade barrel and bushing.
The extra work outside of the Tactical Package adds exactly $300 on to the price. I have no reservations about paying for the trigger and removal of MIM parts, because that is only $125. So my question is, is it worth $175 for a fitted barrel and bushing? I don't believe too much in all the NM or MG barrels (marketing), but $175 seems cheap enough for a properly fitted "match grade" barrel and bushing, with the focus on the fitting.
So, while it's there do I spend the extra $ and have them "add" a MG set-up?
