That's what I thought at first, but since I now have a bushing that is far stronger than the original one and it ripped a chunk out of the front of the slide it seems like it isn't just a bushing failure.

Don't know about any ones for WE though...
Illusion PM'd about this solution last night, unforetunetly I need it for reinacting purposes so I need a 1911A1 slide.

Those are interesting ideas M1, I can't test them though since I can't even keep the front end of the gun together anymore. Do you know of anyone who has actually tried any of the mods you suggested?
