I have had three Combat Masters, 2 blue and 1 SS. Agree with those who suggest the recoil spring needs care at about the 500 round mark. Also the mags are more sensitive to any debris and the mag springs need to be top notch in order to keep serving rounds on these fast cycling guns. All 3 of mine were reliable, one needed the feed ramp polished in order to feed the 'Flying Ashtray' jhp's popular back then. I never felt I had the right holster dialed in and found carrying a lightweight Commander more comfortable. All three were very accurate little guns!
