Ah, that's not the bushing.

That piece didn't come in there and you don't even need it. I use them "just because" but I've never had a failure due to NOT having one.

I don't recommend them on a defensive gun though. The things can CAUSE malfunctions if they fall apart which aparently yours did.

I have some and will mail you a few if you pm me your mailing address.

Kings bushing in the Brownells catalog. I have 2 1911's with this bushing and they work great.

Very Nice! We could use some more 1911 beauty pics round here.

In regards to the bushing. You can get one at several online shops like Brownells or Wilsons. I recommend you get a slightly oversized bushing and have it fit to the gun by a competent smith. It will be a lot more accurate than a typical drop in replacement.

I like Ed Brown and Kings Bushings.
