There are two subtle things the Humble Marksman said in the video about this pistol that has not been brought up in any conversation I've seen to date. First, the barrel does not have any top locking lugs. Second, it uses a 17 pound recoil spring. This almost makes this a blow back pistol rather than a locked breach pistol which then gives me pause of wear and tare over the long haul versus other traditional locked breach 1911 designs.
