Im getting a EGW drop in barrel bushing for my Sig 1911. I've talked to a few people who said the bushing dropped right in for them with no fitting. Assuming it appears to really drop in, when I actually shoot the gun or cycle it what should I look for to see if it's fitted to tight? What types of potential malfunctions would an overly tight bushing cause?
