Features

The Heritage Gun Books 3rd Edition, Volume II: U.S. M1911/M1911A1 Pistols & Commercial M1911 Shop Manual is a deeply detailed, highly visual technical guide for anyone who wants to truly understand, diagnose, and service the 1911 platform. This 207‑page, 6" x 9" softbound manual is packed with crisp cutaway drawings, exploded views, how‑to pictographs, and clear photographs that make even complex mechanical relationships easy to grasp. The text is written in a straightforward, highly readable style, supported by dimensioned close‑ups and practical gunsmithing techniques drawn from professional experience.

Jerry Kuhnhausen’s coverage of function, malfunctions, and corrective procedures is widely regarded as some of the best ever published on the 1911. The manual includes what many consider the most authoritative instructions for custom barrel fitting, complete with step‑by‑step guidance on achieving proper dimensions and correct installation—equally valuable whether you’re building a duty pistol, tuning a match gun, or restoring a classic. Even the index is thoughtfully organized, making the book a reliable bench reference as well as a teaching tool.
