Aftermarket barrel for CZ 97B

[toddchat]

So how difficult is it to install a 1911 barrel bushing?  I've never owned or even fired one.

  I want to make I understand your question.  Do mean "How difficult to replace a CZ97B's Threaded Bushing with a traditional 1911 Barrel Bushing?   Schmecky has done this.  Query "Full Boogie" in this Forum to see his work.

toddchat,

A good local machinist should be able to bore and slot your slide.  You probably won't find a local gunsmith willing to do this.

Bore the slide to .698-.699, then use a woodruff keyway slot cutter for the bushings locking lug.  Order a 1911 match bushing (I prefer Ed Brown) and fit the OD to where you need a bushing wrench to turn/install.  Fit the bushing ID for .001" barrel OD clearance.

Then hang on, cause the accuracy is going to be stellar.
