The Wilson Combat 29S Barrel Bushing transforms standard Government 1911 pistols into precision shooting platforms. This stainless steel component eliminates the play and inconsistency found in factory barrel-to-slide fits, delivering enhanced accuracy and reliability that competitive shooters and tactical professionals demand.

The stainless steel construction resists corrosion and wear while maintaining dimensional stability through thousands of rounds. This bushing requires proper fitting by a qualified gunsmith, ensuring optimal performance tailored to each specific pistol.
