BUSHING COMPENSATOR, MULTI-COMP, 1911 BARREL, FULL-SIZE, BLUE

Installed on Charles Daly 9mm. Did have to sand down outside to fit into slide to hold spring cap . Used flat spring kit and commander spring cap . Didn’t notice a great change but only have 30 rounds thru it . Looks nice and will keep it on !

WC says you must install the two-piece guide rod BEFORE INSTALLATION or this product won't fit. Did you do so or not?

I had to sand the bushing to fit into my slide, it fit my barrel no problem right away. Getting under the lug was a pain in the ass however. I have a RIA 1911-A1 FS .45ACP Government and I guess unlike most 1911s mine only lets the spring plug come out the front. So I filed my slide where it holds it captive to make it to where I can push the bushing in through the front and the back. You can only push the spring cap in through the back when you assemble it because it doesn’t have enough clearance to go through the front with the bushing. It’s all done now and I love it, I have yet to shoot it, just finished 30 minutes ago. Even if it’s just reducing minor muzzle flip, it’s still worth it to me because it looks bad ass.

Got this for my stock Springfield 1911-A1. Took about 3 hours of light sanding on the compensator and shortening of the stock plug. But after running 200+ rounds through this thing makes a heck of a difference. Recoil is now down comparable with a 9mm Glock. Even my friend's wife who hates the kick on their .45 (M&P) likes shooting this one.

I installed the compensator with a little bit of sanding with my work sharp knife sharpener. In slightly under an hour I had a solid fit. Wilson Combat ships fast and I am very happy with my purchase and experience with them in general.

This is a great product great quality I really love it too bad it does not fit my slide if I really want to do that bad I could take it to a machine shop and have the compensator bushing part sanded down so it fits but then it takes the reliability integrity out of the metal So great part unfortunately just not for the Remington 1911 r1 enhanced

Although it's not made for the 4.25" barrel it will fit with a little work. Using a cut off wheel I shortened the end to match that of the stock plug and with a little sanding on the o.d. and i.d., I had it fitted in about 2 hrs. I plan on getting a high cap. 1911 soon also in 4.25 barrel length and will not hesitate in getting another for it and doing it all over again. Along with the Wilson stainless steel slide release, extended thumb safety and beavertail grip safety my S&W 1911 looks badass. I also put Hogue full size lazer grips on it , you have to drill new bottom holes but if you use the old grips and put them together with the new and drill the holes you'll have a perfect fit, a more comfortable grip without the bottom of your hand under the gun and saving you from pinching during mag. changes, plus a nice clean look with full size mags.

I got this with a few other goodies for my pt 1911 that had issues out of the box. Dropped right in with no massaging.

Really liked the look of this but it was not a simple drop in part. Spent about 4 hours filing and polishing to get this to fit. Hardest part was getting the last 1/16” to get into the slide and rotating the part to lock it in the slide. There was a radius where the round portion of the compensator came to the front portion that prevented the compensator from going into the slide and alignment of the lug into the groove in the slide took a lot of work to fit. Some of the small ports on the compensator had burrs that chewed up my right hand while I tried to fit this part. The small ports looked to have been wire edm machined and could have used an extra pass to clean up the material at the cut-off. Some of the finish also came off during all the work on the part and that was disappointing. Not sure why this was so tough to install. Really like the finished product but would not consider another Remington 1911 for this upgrade.
