    1911 Compensator

    Probably would have been smarter to ask before I bought one, BUT..... I didn't.

    The one I bought simply replaces the bushing, not threaded. Nor do I have a threaded barrel. Is it legal?

        I would think even a cone-type compensator would be legal if silver-solderred onto a threaded barrel. The DoJ allowed thread locker to hold the barrel nut on the Walther P22 to resolve that fiasco.

        The law doesn't prohibit threaded barrels per se, but "A threaded barrel, capable of accepting a flash suppressor, forward handgrip, or silencer."
        "You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means."
        "What we get away with isn't usually the same as what's good for us"
        "An extended slide stop is the second most useless part you can put on a 1911"

        "While Ruger DA revolvers may be built like a tank, they have the aesthetics of one also,
        although I suppose there are a few tanks which I owe an apology to for that remark"
