There used to be a source for slides for this conversion that matched up the dust covers to a government frame...I think they were made by Caspian but I don't remember exactly...either Brownells or Caspian.

They will work in 45acp, but the throw is shorter so I don't know if that will work for a 400 Cor-Bon...if you can find a slide.

Also check if you have a ramped or bushing-less barrel.

A lot of guys are shooting 40sw 1911s.


It ain't all burritos and strippers my friends...
