To any 1911 guru:
My beloved Colt Series 70 Gold Cup froze up at the range this week: The slide and barrel locked together part way back during recoil. They will move slightly (1/32") as a unit along the slide rails, but will not separate. The bushing will not turn so I am unable to get it apart to determine what caused the malfunction.
Any ideas?
All help much appreciated.
