I'd like to mount an Osprey on my 1911.
Has anyone had luck with aftermarket "drop-in" 1911 threaded barrels? (I already posted this question on a 1911 forum and 10 guys saying the same thing: send it to a shop for a fitted barrel) I don't need precision, match results. I just want a barrel that will function so the pistol can run suppressed. |

I wanted a "drop in" , looked at threaded bbl with link and bushing. Most cost effective unit as mid - high $200. Considering i paid $400 for RIA. I passed, sold the RIA . Ended up with a G21 & LW bbl. Total of $550 with LW bbl purchased .
The RIA is a phenomenal shooter, however the added cost of threaded bbl wasn't worth it IMO |

Glad I did.
