In that case, would I be able to use a 1911 outer barrel with the Capa slide, and use a bushing?

Yes you would be able to,
only if the slide has a notch cut out to accomodate the bushing. Stock hi capa slides do not have this cut out, but 1911 slides do. With that being said, try to go with the same brand of bushing and slide, or at least the same manufacturer (eg. ILLusion Kinetics and Airsoft Surgeon are 100% compatible because they are sourced from the same manufacturer) because you will be disappointed if you mix brands and find out the bushing doesn't fit in the slide that has a notch cut out for one.
