Kart Government 1911 Barrel Bushing – Stainless Steel
Accuracy starts at the barrel, and therefore, the right bushing dramatically improves performance. The Kart Government 1911 Barrel Bushing provides a solid foundation for consistent, reliable results in Government‑length pistols. In addition, gunsmiths can use its oversized outside diameter and undersized inside diameter to achieve precise alignment between the slide and barrel. As a result, shooters enjoy tighter lockup and improved mechanical accuracy. Whether you build a custom pistol or upgrade an existing one, this bushing delivers National Match‑style performance that consistently exceeds expectations.
⚠️ Professional fitting requires a gunsmith. Do not attempt as a drop-in part.
Oversized Government 1911 Barrel Bushing for Custom Precision
Standard factory bushings often allow unwanted barrel movement; by contrast, the Kart Government bushing gives gunsmiths full control over the fit. Consequently, they can create a perfect, repeatable alignment that enhances every aspect of the pistol’s performance.
Furthermore, the bushing provides tight and consistent barrel-to-slide lockup while simultaneously reducing horizontal and vertical barrel movement. In addition, it improves shot-to-shot consistency and fully supports the muzzle during lockup. Ultimately, the pistol locks up the same way every time, which allows shooters to achieve true match‑grade accuracy in a Government‑length 1911.
Premium Stainless Steel Construction
Moreover, Kart machines this bushing from high-grade stainless steel, which provides excellent corrosion resistance, long service life, and superior wear resistance. In addition, the material maintains stability under heavy recoil and high round counts. Because of this combination of strength and precision, shooters can rely on the bushing in competition pistols, duty guns, and frequently carried carry pistols.
Why a Match‑Grade Government Barrel Bushing Matters
Factory bushings allow unwanted movement at the muzzle, which reduces accuracy and increases group sizes. By contrast, the Kart Government bushing keeps the barrel stable during every cycle. Consequently, shooters gain consistent barrel positioning, stable muzzle alignment, improved repeatability, and tighter groupings.
Therefore, this bushing delivers one of the most effective upgrades for any Government‑length 1911 that demands precision and performance. Additionally, it enhances confidence and reliability every time the pistol fires.
Key Features & Benefits
The bushing features an oversized outside diameter for slide fitting and an undersized inside diameter for barrel fitting. As a result, gunsmiths can achieve a precise, custom fit. In addition, the stainless steel construction resists corrosion, improves barrel-to-slide lockup, and maintains long-term durability. Furthermore, this design enhances mechanical accuracy and ensures optimal performance under demanding conditions.
Compatibility
Shooters can use this bushing with Government‑length 1911 pistols (5″ barrels) and with most factory or aftermarket barrels. However, avoid using it in Commander or Officer‑length pistols.
Ideal Applications
Use this bushing in custom Government 1911 builds, competition pistols, match accuracy upgrades, barrel replacement projects, or professional gunsmith fitting jobs. In each application, the bushing improves precision and overall reliability. Moreover, it enhances repeatable performance under challenging conditions.
Installation Note – Fitting Required
Because this is a true oversized National Match bushing, gunsmiths must fit it to both the slide and barrel. Proper fitting maximizes accuracy, ensures safe operation, fully supports the muzzle, and maintains consistent lockup. Therefore, professional gunsmithing is essential to achieve the best results.
Summary
The Kart Government 1911 Barrel Bushing – Stainless Steel delivers precision, durability, and reliability. Gunsmiths can achieve a true custom fit, National Match‑level accuracy, rock‑solid barrel lockup, and long-term wear resistance. As a result, anyone upgrading or building a Government‑length 1911 will benefit from installing this bushing, making it one of the most effective performance improvements available.
