MRevolutionIX Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 (edited) Has anybody else experienced this? My bushing on my CTS 40 is bending forward. I have heard of bushing breaking where mine is breaking but have never seen this. I wonder how much longer this will hold up?

CZ85Combat Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 You should be asking CZC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably due to them settling back in from SHOT. Just seeing if this a common thing with the bushings. I've got an AccuShadow with a lot more rounds thru it and it is still straight.

zen_grasshopper Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 I haven't seen it with mine, but it makes me wonder if maybe your recoil spring is just a touch too long. If it is a bit long and the spring is binding when the slide is to the rear it would act as a solid stop and the bottom of the bushing is taking the force of the recoil. Please update after CZC gets back to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gonbzrk Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 It's the mass of the reverse plug card causing it, by hammering it as the gun cycles. I had a custom Titanium plug made and it solved the problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrasam Posted February 10, 2017 Share Posted February 10, 2017 I haven't seen that on either of my two 9mm accus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MRevolutionIX Posted February 10, 2017 Author Share Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) I forgot to update this. I finally had time to remove the bushing and found it to be cracked. It is with CZC now and will be replaced. Let me add that when I talked to Stuart he said this was rare and only saw a couple of cases like this. My AccuShadow shows zero signs of failure and has at least double the ammount of rounds this gun has through it.

MRevolutionIX Posted February 12, 2017 Author Share Posted February 12, 2017 I was asked to send the complete upper slide assembly. Slide, bushing, barrel, recoil spring and guide rod. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any crazy mods done? I don't own the Evo anymore but when I had it, the mods I had were very mild. I drive a Honda Ridgeline now. Growing older with kids sucks the fun out of cars!
