[QUOTE="Koolhandlinc, post: 780160, member: 2602"] Even the best made drop in parts need to be checked/fit. You will need a gunsmith or a good book to fit them correctly. Did you do the test where you cock the weapon. (ensure the weapon is empty!) Then with thumb safety in fire position and grip safety squeezed. pull the trigger and listen for a click. The reverse positions of safeties. Cock the weapon and then with thumb safety safe and grip not squeezed. Pull trigger and listen. If at either time you hear a light click then take the weapon to a gunsmith to fit or put old parts back in to it. What you are describing is also a failure that should tell you to take to a smith. The other option is to get books on the 1911 and read up. Just make sure the weapon is unloaded when working on it. [/QUOTE]
