So what is the verdict?
You ran about 100 magazines through the gun, right?
Do you like the 1911 platform?
I like it. Now I can see what people talk about when referring to the accuracy. It's a good gun, but the holy humbug I can see is the maintenance. It's a different technology which requires more cleaning and lubing. Would this specific issue stop me from using it as a carry gun, no. I would carry this, as I trust it will go bang when needing to. But there are better options.
The reason for better options are, lighter gun, cheaper because if it gets confiscated (expensive), smaller gun. And once HI's mag ban gets changed, I would want something with more than 10rds.
I've taken a few skill builders with her and enjoy the way it shoots. Plus it's something different. Not the same gun that everyone has.
The shitty part is the price I paid for this, but I wanted what I want. But glad I got her. Buy once cry once. Had I gone the SIG Scorpion route, I may have been not as happy. Def not as happy if I got any other 1911 model.
