1911-A1 Disassembly and Assembly

I wanted to be able to fully strip and replace parts of a Colt 45 Mark IV .45 caliber and found this remarkable video of how to fully disassemble the sidearm. (On a side note, use an outside workbench or put a few sheets of newspaper on your desk before beginning this process. I also noted it was nice to use a Sharpie and circle and number the parts in the order they came off and group them similar to that shown in the video.

    I learned very easily how to strip a 1911 as a teenager. I didn’t know you could own a gun in the Philippines as a foreigner. I wish i could have taken my CCW pistol on my trip. I always like to have a gun with me when I travel.
