1911 barrel bushing options?

[JPriebe]

I bought a Norinco 1911 in 9mm, (NP29). The previous owner had modified the original barrel bushing to work with a compensator. I do not want to use the compensator but have had a hard time finding a replacement online. Based on my research the Norinco barrels do not taper down smaller after the muzzle which makes them different than the standard 1911. Also all the barrel bushings i've found online do not specify a caliber. Does anyone have any advice or information on where i could go to get a replacement or perhaps a custom one made if it was reasonably priced?

I used a standard bushing on mine (fusion firearms I believe). That gun shot as good as my sig 1911.

I have one that came from Dlask and it is far too large inside. Thanks for the lead on Fusion though. Based on my measurements it looks like they may have one that works. the 705x500 will hopefully fit.

these are not the same as a 45 colt bushing, but I never had a colt 9mm one to try on one I had. The barrel is slimmer on the ones I have had.
Try marstar

 

[JPriebe]

Most all the norinco stuff on marstar is sold out. That was the first place I looked.

Just to clarify, mine was 45acp. Don’t know if fusion ships to Canada anymore

the 45 barrel is standard ( well close), 9mm is totally different animal.

Yeah they unfortunately do not seem to ship here.

Try also Canada Ammo; they have some Nork Parts. Also, put an ad in the EE.

Looking at those they appear to be for a .45 no?

Not seeing anything on their site either. I may have to try the exchange.

Practical performance may have what you need.

I used a Fusion small inside diameter 9mm bushing on mine. It was too tight at first but some time spent with sand paper wrapped around a pencil opended it up nicely.
I got mine from practical performance.

The bushing on on mine measures .6915" on the outer ring and the barrel measures .4995", yours should be very close to those #'s . new bushing will have to be fitted .
EGW makes fitted angle bushings and custom orders , but dont think they ship direct to canada any more
mine is 2012 model

Unfortunately the one they have that looks like it may work is out of stock.

Call them. If they don't have one, they may know who does.

I sent them an email as I didn't know who would answer the phone. No response yet but I can update if they answer, and if not I will call.

Brownells. Order the one for a colt 9mm.


Never mind. Looks like they discontinued it.

Found my old invoice. Part number was 160-102-138mb
