Very odd. BTW, owned two Khars, NEVER AGAIN. As to my 1911s, I guess it must be me. Own four of them, including an Argentine 1927, pre- Series 70, Series 70 NM and a Series 80 Commander stainless and although the Argentine does not like HPs, all the others have never given me a bit of trouble.

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
