Arkie_Lefty Posted May 3, 2011 Report Share Posted May 3, 2011 Bought this Defender used a couple months back and really like the way it shoots (other than a bit picky about some hollow points, going to replace the springs and see if that makes a difference) Excellent trigger and accuracy.Other threads showing pics of Defenders, there never seem to be two alike from the factory, what's been changed on this one, and what's original?Any information appreciated,ThanksBob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Maybe ask at one of the 1911 specific forums.So how does the front end work? No barrel bushing?? (Never touched one before) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arkie_Lefty Posted May 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2011 They have a double/captive spring with a "reverse spring bushing". With the captive spring setup, it's basically held together by the slide lock pin. Much better system than the old Officers bushing with the little pin that's been known to break.Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
