| Hi all, I am in the process of refinishing my full size 1911. I just bought an EGW Carry beveled barrel bushing in stainless, after getting it I realized that it has a thick flange. I think i will get a recoil plug that is extended to match this thicker flange(for looks). My 1911 came with FLGR. My question is would you toss the FLGR and opened end recoil plug? and go with the standard GI spring guide and recoil plug(extended ofcourse)? |

Yes +1 I just eliminated another FLGR after picking up a GI plug and guide rod at a gunshow yesterday. Or no... some folks like guide rods, some don't. I've never seen one cause an issue, and if it isn't a carry pistol, do what makes you feel good. I have pistols both with and without the rod, and they all function just fine... m |
It worked perfectly! I also orderd an GI spring guide, and recoil plug, to match the thick flange of the EGW barrel bushing.
