Hello; my brother and myself went to the shooting range last night to have a little fun. My brother was shooting his 1911 (one that he got from me). while he was shooting he heard a ping like he was shooting a M1 ejecting the ding clip.
He stopped shooting looked the gun over and found that the barrel was on the ground. I took the gun apart to see what had happened. This is what I found.
I hope the pictures came through. The barrel slides into the breach of the 1911. the silver solder broke loose and let the barrel come apart.
I have no idea how many rounds have gone through this barrel, but it is a lot.
I am an old fart an and have shot 1911s for many years. I never knew that they ever made barrels for the 1911 like this.
I would like if some one more informed than me has some information on when these barrels were made and by whom.
Thank you
