As luck would have it, one of my 1911’s has a grip screw bushing issue. I bought this pistol used and decided to take the grips off to thoroughly clean it. Lo and behold, I notice a grip screw bushing canted in the frame. Of course, its cross-threaded.
The threads look great inside the frame other than the very first, single tiny turn of the threads where the bushing begins to thread in. So my issue is, does anyone have a grip screw bushing tap where I can chase these threads and clean it up? Or even possibly know somewhere local I can take it to get this old girl back right?
