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 ejector does not fit the ejector cut in the slide very well.
Than you to anyone that can translate what he said into "English" THANK YOU!!! And, will either of these issues affect the functioning of my un-shot 1911? Will something break? Will the ejector break over time?
I'm trying to learn all I can about new 1911's. I'm 99% certain mine's an 80 version, not a 70 version, that I hear a 70 model has an even better trigger "feel". Never shot a 70 version of a 1911. The difference is no firing pin safety? Is that correct? I LOVE mechanical wrist and pocket watches, which started my love of 1911's, and their SWEET triggers!!!! And being "more mechanical" than a polymer gun. My Glocks all have a kinda "mushy", and stacking triggers. NOTHING like a 1911 trigger! But you (to my knowledge) CANNOT freeze a 1911 in a block of ice, melt the ice, and like a Glock, that was frozen in ice, fires. That's amazing that Glocks can do that! Sorry, I'm just rambling. Too much time on my hands. Sorry!!
Thank you in advance!!
