Notes from an Army comp shooter for an accurate 1911 (early 1970’s)

[Gunbuffer]

I really like these. I surely hope someone transcribes them for us. I found a few words I cannot decipher that are critical to the sentence.

Some of the notes aren't too clear, especially for us'n in the peanut gallery.

EX: "The rear groove will have to have material removed from sides of barrel."

The "grooves" are in the slide.

Barrel lugs they’re called

I believe he's talking about the grooves that go across the barrel in the photo I attached. This is stolen from a seller of Wilson Combat barrels. I'd think a modern new barrel has this problem taken care of, but I think I've got an old GI barrel here somewhere that might need that treatment if I ever get to use it. I didn't find any words that I couldn't understand there, though I did find one that is missing off the bottom of the page. He's talking about checking for contact with Dykem after filing, and I believe it should read "back and forth." I also put the photos in an pdf document, also attached. This is going in the 1911 folder on my various gadgets. If you can specify which page, I'd be happy to look at it and see I if I can figure it out!

Thanks. I did some cleaning myself

This information looks just like what’s in Ken Hallocks book “the 45 auto handbook”
Just my opinion

Maybe it is? I dunno.

I am bothered by the lack of numerical data.
No one do any of this on an already functioning pistol. This is more of a rudimentary primer on how to fit parts that don’t fit, and replacing parts with oversized parts as opposed to accurizing an already functioning 1911

Someone should do it on a Tisas!

Turkish-made copy of the 1911. I have one, and love it.
