Bonus question of the day: What would cause a 1911 pattern pistol to fail (just barely) to go into battery after the third round, every other time or so, on the same magazine? (Third "Bang!" and then a light tap on the rear of the slide to jar it that extra 1/16th or so of an inch.) I was thinking my locking cuts were just dirty or something but it was always the fourth round out of the magazine (essentially brand new Wilson ETM.)
You might try a new recoil spring.
ReplyDeleteShould have mentioned, I just dropped in a brand new 17# Wolf action spring...
ReplyDeleteInteresting. It only did this with the one magazine?
ReplyDeleteYup, just have the one at the moment, picked it up for T&E. Was going to get a couple more, but I may be looking at some other options now...
ReplyDeleteMight be worth shooting Wilson an email. I have a few of their magazines for my Ultra Raptor. They've functioned as well as any other well made magazine.
ReplyDelete"Same round, same mag" makes it sound like a burr in the tube.
ReplyDeleteHmm... possible. I'll have to pull it apart when I get home.
