I put another 200 rounds though my Citadel 1911 and have come to realize that I don't like the pistol much in it's current form. The ambi safety is in the way of my left finger and I don't care for it's shape and size on the thumb side. The serrated trigger is annoying after the 50th or so shot. I'd also like some 3 dot sights to replace the stock sights. It ran like crap but I think I caused some of the stoppages with my thumb on my right hand having issues with the safetty. What vendors should I look at for parts? |

Quoted: try a thumb over the saftey grip. also known as thumbs forward grip. I tried over and under. Going under, I tripped the safety more than once and when I shot with the thumb over it wasn't comfortable. I'd like to add some stainless parts to bling it out a little and this gives me an excuse.  |

Older 38super and 9mm varieties used a "skinny" barrel........the 45acp barrel used a larger one of course.......most 9mm and 38 super barrels as of today take the same as the 45acp............Inside diameter differences of a few thousands..............are for reaming to achieve a tight fit.............
I would say that .581 inside diameter would be for drop in application and something around .574 would be for gunsmith fitting |
