    Check with Wilson and Storm Lake, I recently bought a Storm Lake Barrel and it was about $135 with link pin and matching bushing.

    You should be able to find a USGI replacement barrel (parked, govt stock number stamped) for $50-60. Check the GB auctions or a local gun show.

    Make is Colt.


    Do you want it to merely function? Do you want it to be accurate? Is the gun capable of better accuracy with a barrel that can provide greater accuracy?

    If the gun is a slapped together or rattle trap, perhaps nothing more than a $50.00 replacement from SAARCO or Numrich is fine. If it's a well made gun then perhaps a more expensive barrel that is well fitted is best, that's a +$150.00 barrel easily.

    You have asked for a barrel for a "1911" Colt. If you are not misusing the term "1911," you are asking for a barrel for a World War I era service pistol, not for a Model of 1911A1, or for any variation of the Government Model commercial, non-military pistols.

    cpermed is absolutely right in his comment. Your question is hugely broad and impossible to answer in any accurate way. There are several variations of barrels that were used in Models of 1911, and they vary in price by about a factor of ten, with the vary early barrels being at the high end, and the common late barrels being at the low end.

    If you properly identify your pistol and cite the serial number range of your pistol, then correct advice can be given.

    +1.

    Why do you want to replace the barrel you've got?

    If you want maximum accuracy, you'd need the barrel fitted, and that will add costs beyond just the cost of the barrel.
