In my experience, the bushing tool is a must for Kimber 1911s. The recoil spring cap does not have the nice textured flat surface that my Ruger 1911 has.
I liked the video, especially the way you were able to field strip 3 different 1911's and reassemble them correctly. I liked it when you said 'I would show you how to remove the KIMBERS 2 stage spring assembly but I don't want to', that made me laugh. Keep up the good work on these videos, I can learn from all is my MOTTO. FYI, there is a slip on tool made of plastic that holds the spring slightly compressed, it aids on the takedown and is better suited then the metal wire suppplied by KIMBER.
Professional, organized, and she actually has reviewed her material before speaking to the camera. Well done girl! Are you military or law enforcement? Or just an informed citizen?
Limalife. Thank you for explaining that to us. My bad. As I watched more of your videos, I came to realize that judging from your apparent experience and sense of responsibility, that there must have been something I missed.
I like this lady's videos, but it does seem like she isn't always looking down the barrel when she racks the slide to check that the gun is empty. Without looking, she could just as easily have chambered a round instead.

@erikwood In most of my videos (especially the older ones) my camera is nothing more than the webcam on my computer and I see everything I'm doing on my computer screen. Everything I show "you" I see myself and so when I show "you" that the firearm is clear I'm seeing it myself. Not to mention that all firearms are triply safety checked before recording ever even stars.
@erikwood As my old USAF D.I. used to say 'YA WON'T DO THAT AGAIN NOW WILL YA? (sorry for the CAPS lock just had D.I. flashbacks) really though, we were taught to clear the weapon and handle it in the 'safely cleared fashion' with the breech/slide locked back. Some individuals without military training may think just racking the slide is sufficent. It only takes 1 round of ammunition to ruin your day. (see DI comments). She seems to be very knowledgeable, she stated the weapon cleared before.
shes reading a script! And for God sake teach her not to point guns at people on you tube would please! I bet she sucks the blueing off the gun good! lolShe full of crap she belongs in the kitchen! She has no idea wgat she is saying .
If it ain't a Colt or one of the defense contractors under license from Colt, it's NOT a 1911. It's a copy or a clone. You refer to them as 1911 "type" pistols, if you wish, but not a 1911. Good job with the various types of this pistol, however. I like seeing girls who have and know there guns. I think all women should avail themselves of guns for self defense. Exactly why I taught all my daughters about guns and how to maintain them. Even bought them their first pistol. Keep up the good work.
i just purchased a rock island 1911. your videos ar very helpful as it pertains to field stripping and just plain general knowledge. keep up the good work...you rock!!!!!!!!!
could you do a desert eagle .44 and .50 tutorial? im trying to find a new weapon and i dont have much free time to go to gun stores and check them out, im in a time crunch pretty much 6 days out of the week,, and you make great vid tutorials. thanks
lol, what's up with the comments about this being confusing for a novice? I've only shot a handgun once and have never disassembled one and I did not find this at all confusing... three different guns did not add any level of difficulty keeping track of what was happening especially since each of the pieces were easily identified, nothing I saw really looked identical on any of the guns... None the less this video was cool to watch and informative, thanks.
Ignore the negative comments. You do an excellent job with your videos and they perfectly serve the purposes for which I believe they are intended. Critics who want to attend armorers school should enroll in one.
P L E A S E, do a assm and dis assm of a series 80s Colt firing pin safety slide and receiver. Lot of people are looking for it and there is no reference on the internet.
I think you should point your camera down at the table ever so slightly so at least we were able to see what you just put away and what was at hand, you know.
... just saying, cuz I think it would be easier for the viewer to review what you already took of...
jimgiunta....sshhhhmuck... just because their obviously tiny brains cant follow the take down and reassembly of more then 1 gun at a time doesn't mean it's a no-no LMFAO. ppl like that totally missed the point. Anyway I've seen a few of your videos online and I just wanted to say, It's really cool to see a girl with a genuine interest in guns.... the way they work.... and shoot.... and have a passion for the hobby. NO NOOB!! lol, you look beautiful with the blond hair by the way.
jimgiunta Leave this woman alone and chill out. Your subtle threat of her being sued is just a joke.
While I am not an expert on all 1911 makes and models I am a well trained in many weapons(thank you marine corps). I also own serveral of my own to include a commander style 1911.
Limalife, I Agree this video is NOT a dissasembly video. I was not 100% sure on the full workings of the slides on the bull barrels. Now I have a better idea thank you.
I get a bit of a laugh at you having three different versions of 1911. And you are familiar with all three. Bravo!
I used to disassemble and reassemble the 1911 blindfolded but it has been 41 years. Don't know if I could still do it. I reckon the time has come to buy myself a nice, original "government issue" 1911and re-familiarize myself. Pray I never "need" it, but fear the time is coming. Boy Scout motto, "Be prepared."

One more thing. You start this video saying it's a tutorial; you don't say for whom. In your videos, you hold yourself up as an authority or expert. I shudder to think what some slick lawyer would do to you if some nimrod killed or injured someone because he watched your videos and didn't understand something that wasn't clear. If you are involved in any kind of firearms business, or even if you're not, you are just asking for trouble, believe me. You should probably consult an attorney first.

Wow, if I had to tell a novice to find a video that gave instruction on take down and assembly of these weapons, it would not be this one. It would pose more questions in their mind then it would probably answer. I applaud your effort, but if you're going to produce these kinds of videos, you need to be serious about it. This is way to rushed, you don't demonstrate or show key parts of the process, and you NEVER disassemble a weapon without reassembling it, before going on to the next one.
Good. I don't want novices to take this video as instruction on take down. That wasn't the point of the video. The point of the video was to show how different 1911s can be and that watching a generic take-down video may not be enough to learn about your own specific firearm.
And exactly why can't you have multiple firearms disassembled at once? I'm not sure why that is such a no-no.
Even if you were to state this video isn' for novices, which you didn't do, there will be novices watching it. You never disassemble multiple weapons and then reassemble them, especially the way you did it where the weapons keep popping in and out of view, as it would be too easy for an inexperienced person to confuse the disassenbly of one with the reassembly of another. Even if you showed them on a table, which you didn't do it would be a no-no. Start one, and finish one, then do the next.
Well, I'm not a novice. You could take all of my handguns, disassemble them and throw their parts in the box, shake it up and dump it on a table and I could put them all back together with not so much as a recoil spring being put in the wrong firearm.
And, in the description of my video I specifically say, "I hope to show that it is necessary to pay close attention to your manual.." Note: I said manual.. not me.
I also say as much in my video. Not sure why that steps so heavily on your toes.
@jimgiunta I would not tell a novice to buy a 1911. A 1911 is not really for a novice user. This weapon is for a more experienced shooter. limalifes video is a good video for field stripping a 1911. Anyone with eyes can see the different parts as she disassembles and reassembles each weapon. If you are so stupid that you cannot take down a 1911 after this video, then you do not need to own a 1911. It is not rocket science!

limalife, you look very sophisticated in this vid. There's a victorian feel about your hair, your voice, and even the dresser. but then came the full size 1911 and I was like, "Yup. She likes it big." :)
I like the para ordnance battle 1911's, especially the 14 round hi cap competition shooters. very rugged with the old 1911 reliability and defeating the complaints of a low mag capacity of 7 rounds. It even beats the USP's 12 rounds. very nice model.
The jury is still out on them for me. I have seen some scary stuff from the Taurus PT1911 and let's just say I won't be buying one... Not for a LONG LONG LONG LONG time.. if ever.
Unbelievable. Finally, someone on YouTube talking about handguns that actually knows what they're taking about.
Good for you young lady, and although I have plenty of comments that I'll keep to myself, these are excellent instructional videos for anyone who owns a handgun.
damn!!!! , i seen that wedding ring well, good job lady you're hot nice work, i'm sad after i seen that ring finger i almost had a mental break down lol jp thanks for tha vid
And what did I say that would give you a thumbsdown for? If you're not familiar with handguns or handgun controls, the slide stop on a 1911 would probably screw you up in a crisis situation. Simplicity is the key to self defense. A glock merely rack the slide, chamber a round and defend yourself. Beginner's need simple, easy to use, "idiot proof" as it were choices before the advance into better qualities.
How, exactly, would a slide stop on a 1911 be any more hazardous than a slide stop on a Glock? They have the exact same function: they lock back the slide after firing the last cartridge.
And as far as racking the slide, chambering a round and shooting is concerned.. Yep, you can do that on a 1911 too.
Actually I misspoke, or in this case, wrote a typo. I meant thumb safety. The trigger safety (if you can even call it that) is much simpler than that of a 1911 or an HK or some other pistol with a basic Browning design. Additionally, as you probably know but a beginner wouldn't, is that an improper or loose grip won't properly engage the grip safety.
Again, this is just my opinion. We're just sharing opinions here. You're not right and I'm not right. It all comes down to proper training.
Disengaging the thumb safety should be part of your draw. Also, getting a sight picture takes a hell of a lot more time than gripping the pistol in the first place.
`1911s aren't particularly good for home defense unless you're good with handguns IMO. If you're a beginner, I'd go with a Glock. it's not the highest quality weapon but it will pretty much shoot every time you need it.
None taken :) i dont really like glocks, i know tons of people swear by them...just feels...funny, for lack of a better term, i'll stick to my 1911s till i find something i like, maybe a Sig
WOW!!! Perfect gun and perfect woman...So pretty and very intelligent... I would marry you and if you have a man already he is very very lucky... very very lucky
first of all 1911s and DEs are 2 totaly different types of guns(action, caliber, style etc.). so you cant really compare them. secondly they were designed in two totaly different time eras of technology. Also the number of owners of each model should help you realize why your statement was false.
Desert Eagles are useless show off movie guns. Their ergonomics are just inferior to 1911's. No agency or military uses unpractical Desert Eagle, but 1911's still sees some service after nearly 100 years. While there are now better designs for military pistol, hardly any handgun can match the ergonomics and point'n'shoot qualities of a good 1911. I prefer STI 1911's, but I like them all.
Nice! Quick check of the chamber! I suggest every time you introduce a pistol, show how to remove the magazine everytime and check and check. Otherwise, that awsome! Alot of people don't know how to break down this pistol that been in existance for almost 100 years.
It took me forever to learn how to break down my officer size 1911.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
ur a hot chick with knowlge of guns i like that about u and wat is the best 19 11 for saftey i was thinking about geting the 1911 from a game called meteal gear solid 3
If she did break a nail she'd hopefully take it out on you and shoot you in the nut douchebag. Don't hate cause a chick way fucking outranks you in guns.
I would just like to say that it's very refreshing to see a lady, (and a beautiful one at that), so experienced and knowledgeable in firearms. My daughter is the same way. She can field-strip and reassemble her .45 in about 40 seconds. But on a side note....I'm having ejection jams on my Gov't. Model .45 (Auto-Ordnance). The ejector looks fine, so I'm thinking about trimming down the slide-return spring. Any thoughts?
I'd have to know exactly how it was jamming to diagnose. There is VERY small differences in how the jam looks but it can be anything between your ejector, your extractor, your magazine or even the frame or slide. Each have tell-tale signs they leave in the way it jams, on the cartridge, brass, or all three.
Bought it "used" at a gun show. When I first took it out, it would jam on loading. (Worn return spring?) So I bought and installed a new one, which was about and inch and half longer than the old. Now it jams trying to eject. Loads fine. (Too heavy of a return spring?) That's the best I can give you. I know "gun-smithing" via text really isn't the way to do it. LOL! So I've just been picking my brain and thinking maybe I should trim the spring down, bit by bit, and see what happens.
One more question for you. In "Holster Talk, Pt. 3" you were using the "red" full-size gun to show the in-the-waistband holster. The one with the reinforced mouth. Do you remember who sells that holster and cost? Thanks again, Lima.
The holster in question is a Milt Sparks Versa MaxII. The get a standard power recoil spring, not return spring, recoil spring. I'll send you a link on how to check your extractor tension, and a good place to get spring packs, if you bought used, it's probably a good idea to change out all the springs.
i missed your videos i had to come back on to youtube and watch them your videos are the best

limalife, you look very sophisticated in this vid. There's a victorian feel about your hair, your voice, and even the dresser. but then came the full size 1911 and I was like, "Yup. She likes it big." :)

Ah yes, the original springfield 1911.
Designed to be easy to disassemble, clean, repair, and reassemble.
Not a high speed weapon, it was deliberately designed to have tremendous knockdown power.
Safe, reliable, and dependable since 1911. Ninety eight years and counting.

I like the para ordnance battle 1911's, especially the 14 round hi cap competition shooters. very rugged with the old 1911 reliability and defeating the complaints of a low mag capacity of 7 rounds. It even beats the USP's 12 rounds. very nice model.

They are nice as far as capacity is concerned but for my little hands they are WAY too thick. I can never get a comfortable grip.

And what did I say that would give you a thumbsdown for? If you're not familiar with handguns or handgun controls, the slide stop on a 1911 would probably screw you up in a crisis situation. Simplicity is the key to self defense. A glock merely rack the slide, chamber a round and defend yourself. Beginner's need simple, easy to use, "idiot proof" as it were choices before the advance into better qualities.
kbizzle999 3 years ago
How, exactly, would a slide stop on a 1911 be any more hazardous than a slide stop on a Glock? They have the exact same function: they lock back the slide after firing the last cartridge.
And as far as racking the slide, chambering a round and shooting is concerned.. Yep, you can do that on a 1911 too.
limalife 2 years ago
Actually I misspoke, or in this case, wrote a typo. I meant thumb safety. The trigger safety (if you can even call it that) is much simpler than that of a 1911 or an HK or some other pistol with a basic Browning design. Additionally, as you probably know but a beginner wouldn't, is that an improper or loose grip won't properly engage the grip safety.
Again, this is just my opinion. We're just sharing opinions here. You're not right and I'm not right. It all comes down to proper training.

tictac4949 2 years ago
Disengaging the thumb safety should be part of your draw. Also, getting a sight picture takes a hell of a lot more time than gripping the pistol in the first place.

Sig is always a great gun. Sig over Glock any day of the week. P220 are always badass. The 228/9 are always nice.
Personally, I'd go with an HK USP40F or HK45, maybe even a Mark23 if you could still get them.

`1911s aren't particularly good for home defense unless you're good with handguns IMO. If you're a beginner, I'd go with a Glock. it's not the highest quality weapon but it will pretty much shoot every time you need it.
kbizzle999 3 years ago
I'm not saying you're a beginner, I just got that feeling from your post, no offense.

Dr0pAheartBreakAname 3 years ago
first of all 1911s and DEs are 2 totaly different types of guns(action, caliber, style etc.). so you cant really compare them. secondly they were designed in two totaly different time eras of technology. Also the number of owners of each model should help you realize why your statement was false.

Desert Eagles are useless show off movie guns. Their ergonomics are just inferior to 1911's. No agency or military uses unpractical Desert Eagle, but 1911's still sees some service after nearly 100 years. While there are now better designs for military pistol, hardly any handgun can match the ergonomics and point'n'shoot qualities of a good 1911. I prefer STI 1911's, but I like them all.

Nice! Quick check of the chamber! I suggest every time you introduce a pistol, show how to remove the magazine everytime and check and check. Otherwise, that awsome! Alot of people don't know how to break down this pistol that been in existance for almost 100 years.
It took me forever to learn how to break down my officer size 1911.

I would just like to say that it's very refreshing to see a lady, (and a beautiful one at that), so experienced and knowledgeable in firearms. My daughter is the same way. She can field-strip and reassemble her .45 in about 40 seconds. But on a side note....I'm having ejection jams on my Gov't. Model .45 (Auto-Ordnance). The ejector looks fine, so I'm thinking about trimming down the slide-return spring. Any thoughts?
niiteshade 3 years ago
I'd have to know exactly how it was jamming to diagnose. There is VERY small differences in how the jam looks but it can be anything between your ejector, your extractor, your magazine or even the frame or slide. Each have tell-tale signs they leave in the way it jams, on the cartridge, brass, or all three.
limalife 3 years ago
Bought it "used" at a gun show. When I first took it out, it would jam on loading. (Worn return spring?) So I bought and installed a new one, which was about and inch and half longer than the old. Now it jams trying to eject. Loads fine. (Too heavy of a return spring?) That's the best I can give you. I know "gun-smithing" via text really isn't the way to do it. LOL! So I've just been picking my brain and thinking maybe I should trim the spring down, bit by bit, and see what happens.
niiteshade 3 years ago
One more question for you. In "Holster Talk, Pt. 3" you were using the "red" full-size gun to show the in-the-waistband holster. The one with the reinforced mouth. Do you remember who sells that holster and cost? Thanks again, Lima.
niiteshade 3 years ago
The holster in question is a Milt Sparks Versa MaxII. The get a standard power recoil spring, not return spring, recoil spring. I'll send you a link on how to check your extractor tension, and a good place to get spring packs, if you bought used, it's probably a good idea to change out all the springs.
