Last night I installed a new Kimber recoil assembly into the Compact ATII have. The old was definitely used up and hte bushing no longer supported the barrel a all in the forward position. No biggie, things wear out. Gun locks up better, returns to battery easier and seems to have a little less felt recoil than before.
This got me to thinking what other things I need to be on the lookout to replace? I'm far from a 'smith and I ain't no Tim, but I do love and carry my 1911's daily.
Also, the finish on this has gotten pretty beat up after 4 years of EDC literally every day. What finish holds up better?
