Well, I found an inexpensive 1911 in the classified forum and could not pass it up. This is my first 1911 and my first .45 actually. WOOHOO!
Took her to the range for a little workout. While going through the paces I did have one Jam. I ran 50 rounds downrange and only one jammed. Most were ball ammo but I went through 10 Golden Saber JHP rounds and one of those ended up sticking in the chamber vertically. Not up like a smokestack but inside the chamber. Not sure what that was.
Trigger is nice and smooth. Pretty accurate as well.
Pleased with the performance thus far. Teeny bit loose in the slide and may need a new spring in the mag but all in all I can get my feet wet while I tinker on this one.
