I got the guns from my state Pistol team to take all the 45s (before I issued any) and switch parts back and forth until they had the 10 most accurate "as issued" guns to save for the state team. So I ordered 4 1911a1s for each BN and separate company and an extra 10 to keep in the marksmanship unit to be issued to the winning unit we would send to the NG Championships. Regulations forbid shooters from taking Unit arms home or checking them out for practice. The Guard had a Combat Program where unit teams had to use issued weapons. Then many years later, I was running the Alaska NG Marksmanship Unit. Regardless of what frame the parts came from. etc etc.Īfter they were all cleaned we'd take a slide and walk down the line adding parts until the pistol was put back together. We set out an assembly line where we took all the guns apart and set the parts in different areas, so we could walk down the line cleaning each part or pile of parts, frame here, slide there, barrel over there.
One day this other guy and me screwed up, so instead of getting the weekend off we got to clean all the schools 1911a1, hundreds of them. I believe a 1911a1 is a 1911a1 regardless of who make what parts as long as they are USGI parts. Like other surplus guns they go through re-builds and they use parts that are available.
Mix Masters? I believe most USGI 1911a1's are mix masters.
