Was given a brand new 5” 45acp. Springfield Ronin. Two problems. 1) The slide catches on the slide release, with no fingers near the slide release. When you’re manually sliding it back and forth, with no mag in, it catches, hesitates slightly, and it also rubs on the bottom of the left slide...

So, my knowledge of what a “feed ramp” is, is the shiny (supposed to be) bottom of the entrance of the barrel, PART of the bottom of the rear of the barrel itself, some others are talking about something that can be damaged by Chip McCormic mags. I could never see a magazine would ever damage...

Hello, Only posted a few times, been busy. Moved up from Fla. to N. Atlanta. Like the “no 3 day waiting period on gun purchase in Ga.!” And watching the Braves win the World Series, that was AWESOME!!! But the traffic(WOW) and more crime, not so much. Oh well… on to what I came to...

I keep my two-tone Kimber Pro Carry II in its blue Kimber ziplock plastic baggie in its case. A small, about 2mm. long surface scratch, on the matte black top, near the front top of the...

He said to me, after looking at my new 4” barrel 1911, the following 2 items I do not understand: 1) The breechface “J cut” was not well cut, as evidenced by the brass smears on that side having a very distinct vertical separation line that you can see immediately above the ejector. 2) The...

Bought a new Kimber 1911 45 cal. My first 1911. Now thinking of either another Kimber or a Springfield. Don’t know much about Springfield except they may be made in Brazil?? Or, is that just the slide? Thanks!
