[QUOTE="CSeverns, post: 3628723, member: 44527"] *Other things to be mindful of is that some have a GI style recoil spring guide and plug, and others have a full length guide rod, but it’s not difficult to swap out one for the other. Most use the non-ramped barrel with a pivoting barrel link, but there are a few out there that use the ramped Para style barrel. Some also have the thicker and heavier bull barrel and the reverse plug without the bushing. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend the bull barrel configuration if you’re new to 1911s because they’re a lot more difficult to field strip, plus most 1911s use the traditional barrel bushing anyway.
