Surplus M1911 Barrel Source?

[jjohnson]

Hi, Gents!

I'm restoring a WWII issue M1911A1 and need a surplus (used) barrel. I'm sure somebody out there has takeoff barrels, links, and pins in a bucket from customizing jobs...... but where are they? I remember those things going for $20 bucks, but I guess either I'm showing my age or Clinton had those torched along with everything else.

If you want a real Colt or other WWII barrel, those will be pricey and you can find them on Gunbroker or ask in the WTB at the 1911forum.com.

if you want "any old" barrel, same as above or Sarco for very cheap.

I'd buy them buy the semi load for $20 a pop in decent condition.
