The best advice I can give to keep a 1911 running is....
....if you are new(ish) to the platform, buy a full size 1911 chambered in .45acp. Keep it lubed, use WC 47 7rnd mags, and feed it quality ammo that that particular gun likes. Change springs often. If it fails to cycle, don't freak out....look at the malfunction and figure out what is happening. It was designed in over 100 years ago....its not rocket science. YMMV.
Best,
Will
BTW, my favorite carry 1911 is a full size WC UltraLite Carry chambered in .38Super. Crazy accurate, easy to shoot, easy to carry, super(pardon the pun) reliable, and hits pretty damn hard. My carry load is the WC 124XTP that clocks out of my gun at 1370FPS.
I am at 13K with the factory barrel. 2008 model. Been using CMC mags since day one.
I want to step on the gas with this thing but work keeps getting in the way.
If you're going to be a bear….be a GRIZZLY!
Just got back from a midweek shoot night. Kind of a practice session a local GM has put together to help the local guys and gals get better. Didn't shoot as well as I would have liked, but this Springfield only ever needed a bend of the extractor. It has never failed to feed, fire or eject the rounds I've put through it.
Hoping to break through to A class this season. This will be the gun to do it.
