Just got a Sig Nightmare Carry, my first 1911. Is there a U-tube video available somewhere to show how to break it down for cleaning? | ||

I've never owned a 1911, but here's what a quick google search found. Link to original video: https://youtu.be/MCKcHVAYZNo Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

It's a standard bushing barrel 1911, so you'll have a goodly number of Youtube videos. The bushing shouldn't be tight enough that it requires a bushing wrench. Two notes about 1911s for a new owner: don't let the hammer drop with the slide off the frame and don't let the slide fly forward on an empty chamber (the 1911 trigger mechanism isn't the same as other trigger systems). ---------------------------- Chuck Norris put the laughter in "manslaughter" Educating the youth of America, one declension at a time. | |||

Good rule of thumb to not do this on ANY pistols. Good etiquette at the very least when handling guns that are not yours. "Guns are tools. The only weapon ever created was man." | |||

Make sure you watch a video on how to put it back together without making the "idiot mark" on the frame. "I vowed to myself to fight against evil more completely and more wholeheartedly than I ever did before. . . . That’s the only way to pay back part of that vast debt, to live up to and try to fulfill that tremendous obligation." Alfred Hornik, Sunday, December 2, 1945 to his family, on his continuing duty to others for surviving WW II. | |||

I'm not saying that I know first hand that this is a good idea. I'm not NOT saying that I know first hand either.... ***************** Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. - Ben Franklin | |||

Here is, in my opinion, one of the best YouTube video on disassembly on the Series 80 1911s. Series 80 - 1911 Video This is mine:  If you're goin' through hell, keep on going. Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it. You might get out before the devil even knows you're there. NRA ENDOWMENT LIFE MEMBER | |||
