Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Handguns 1911 ....Why is it..

Why is every time I think I got this 1911 thing worked out things go south? I have been working really hard with the 1911 to get good with one again.

Tonight I had a failure to feed so bad that it tied the gun up. I couldn't get the slide to go forward or backward. It was about a 1/8 inch from being in battery but it wouldn't do anything. I finally beat it open and the round chambered smoothly and fired just fine.

I guess I might as well realize I'm stuck with Glocks and good smith & wesson revolvers.
