I'm looking at replacing some things on my gun with some Wilson parts that I like. Can things like an aftermarket pre prepped hammer and/or sear be dropped into my Springfield 1911A1 without any special fitting? How about a mainspring housing?
What does that little set screw in a trigger do for you and why/when would you need one? How do you set it?
Are thumb safeties interchangeable (drop in)? What do I need to know special about ambi safeties? How do they hold together?
Is a one piece full legnth guide rod better than a two piece? How do you get it out?
Anything else that I should know, and any books (ones still in print) that I should be looking for/at?
Thanks major amounts. I'm new to the 1911 thing, and I love how a basic gun can be customized with off the shelf parts and be super tuned to each shooter! Can't do that with a Glock/Sig/Ruger/Etc.!!!!
