The Kart National Mat 1911 Barrel Bushing offers a Precision Fit • National Match Accuracy • Ordnance Steel Durability
The Kart Government National Match 1911 Barrel Bushing is a true match-grade upgrade built for shooters and gunsmiths who demand the tightest possible barrel-to-slide fit for maximum accuracy. Designed with oversized inside and outside diameters, this bushing allows for custom precision fitting to both the barrel and slide—delivering the tight lockup required for National Match–level performance.
Manufactured by Kart from premium ordnance steel, this bushing offers exceptional wear resistance, strength, and long service life even under high round counts.
⚠️ Fitting is required for proper installation and performance.
✅ Oversized 1911 Barrel Bushing Design for Precision Custom Fitting
Unlike drop-in bushings, the Kart National Match bushing is intentionally oversized to allow:
✅ Precision fitting to both the slide and barrel
✅ Maximum barrel support at lockup
✅ Reduced horizontal and vertical barrel movement
✅ Improved consistency shot-to-shot
As a result, you achieve a tighter mechanical lockup, which directly translates into improved accuracy on target.
✅ Built from Premium Ordnance Steel
Kart machines each Government model bushing from high-quality ordnance steel, then finishes it for long-term reliability. This ensures:
✅ Excellent wear resistance
✅ Resistance to deformation under recoil
✅ Long service life for competition and duty pistols
✅ Stable fit even after extended use
This is the same steel standard trusted in high-end match-grade 1911 components.
✅ Why a Match 1911 Barrel Bushing Improves Accuracy
A loose factory barrel bushing allows unwanted movement at the muzzle. That movement causes:
❌ Inconsistent lockup
❌ Poor repeatability
❌ Reduced mechanical accuracy
By contrast, the Kart National Match bushing:
✅ Locks the barrel consistently in the same position
✅ Stabilizes the muzzle end of the barrel
✅ Reduces group size
✅ Improves overall mechanical accuracy
This makes it one of the most important accuracy upgrades you can make to a Government-size 1911.
