1911, A man's puzzle
My mods so far (only drop in parts). I guess i wanted it to run 70's series stlye
Removal of firing pin block
Replaced extractor to Extra Strong(XS) Wilson Combat 70's series with very little adjustment
Replaced firing pin stop to Wilson CombatC 70's square type (said to reduce muzzle flip, and is the spec of the original design.
Replaced firing pin to 70s Ed Brown's
Replaced firing pin spring to a stronger and slightly longer Ed Brown's
Polished the feed ramps although they're already somehow smoothed by hardball ammos
Detailed strip the slide and frame, cleaned and re-oiled the parts
Smoothened a very few tooling marks.
200 rounds overall.
First 100 all stock except the magazines (wilson combat and kim tac pros) No FTE, no FTF, no brass to the face
Second 100 rounds with the mods still no failures, evidently better groups (cause this time i learned to "properly"
grip it
). Now I feel I could shoot with .45 all day
Next project probably with the trigger system and some nice kamagong grips
Armed but broke
