It's actually the correct way to disassemble an highly accurized 1911s. A lot of highly accurized 1911s in the military, such as JSOC/SMU owned 1911s and Camp Perry 1911s are disassembled this way to avoid causing tolerance issue from disassembling and affecting accuracy.

In the Army, you definitely release the tension first. Depress the spring cup, roll the lug out of the way and allow the cup and spring to come out of the front. Then you bring the slide back to remove the slide catch. Then rotate the lug the other way and remove the slide, finally sliding the barrel and lug out of the front. This method looks cool but it feels like a good way to go chasing a spring and cup. In the dark, in the field....

So either way you just need to be careful putting it back together to prevent the scratch.

I was taught a much different sequence of disassembly and re-assembley. I press in the plug first, rotate the Barrel bushing, carefully release the recoil spring plug, to ensure it doesn't fly to the other side of the room, THEN, push the slide back and then press/remove the slide stop and then you can push the slide forward and off, rotate the barrel bushing, and slide the barrel out. BTW, not a single one of my 4, 1911's have the idiot scratch. ALSO, All of my 1911's have a full length recoil spring guide. I find my weapons run much smoother than with small guides. It's also easier to take down and put back together. I believe you would call it the "Traditional method".

I don’t understand many of the negative comments here. While the title might be a little off (I don’t see this method helping prevent an idiot scratch), the creator did a fine job presenting an alternative takedown method for a tightly fitted 1911. Most of my 1911’s I field strip the traditional way. My Colt Hawk has a fitted barrel bushing. No way I can turn that thing without a wrench and my understanding was the field strip procedure demonstrated here by the author helped preserve that tight fit. I could be wrong. I almost always am. Either way, great video and a beautiful Colt.

The method of disassembling and reassembling the 1911 shown is not how I learned in the Army. 1. Remove the magazine first then lock the slide to the rear and inspect the chamber. Always remove the source of ammunition first. 2. Allow the slide to go forward and push down on the spring plug rotate the barrel bushing to allow the spring plug to come out while maintaining pressure so as not allow the plug to shoot across the room. Remove the plug from the pistol. 3. Pull the slide back to engage the slide catch with the small notch and pressing the tip of the slide catch, remove the slide catch to release the slide. 4. Remove the plug from the pistol and rotate the barrel bushing the other direction to remove the slide along with barrel, the operating rod and spring. Reassemble in the reverse fashion. The spring plug is always the first part removed and always the last part replaced. Removing the plug releases tension on the operating spring and allows much easier disassembly and reassembly. Had I followed the procedure shown here I would have had hell to pay with that man wearing the Smokey the Bear hat.

All you need to do is remove the recoil spring first. Thats literally how its designed to be disassembled and reassembled.

I dont have any safe queens. Mine are all working guns. If youre worried about such, its as good a way as any. I pull the mag and spring first.

The reason they call that an idiot scratch is because only idiots try to disassemble and reassemble a 1911 that way.

had a DW 10MM SS Bobtail I sent back to DW to get refinished. It came ( didn't have one when it left my possession) back with that "idiot scratch". Damn.
