[QUOTE="whiskeysnoot, post: 1625743, member: 4542"] Finally got my SR1911 after one day short of 3 month wait and pre-paying. From Sportsworld. $642 before tax. Initial impression was "wow", Ruger really did well with fit, finish, and the "everything you need, nothing you don't" parts. Then to the range. Three different mags of different manufacture and four different loads had FTF over and over. We're talking 2 rds out of 7 feeding. Decision time. Send back or cure myself? Well hell, i can fix anything! Found lower end of breech face to be too tight. Measured .477. .45 ACP rim spec is .480. This was area of breech below the extractor. Above extractor clearance was fine. A few minutes with a file and back in business. 100 rds fired flawlessly with much better accuracy than expected. [/QUOTE]
