I've shot 1911 mags loaded SINCE 1944 and they worked without a hitch. The first Khar I had would not re-cock every time and I had to send it back to get fixed. That was a 40. The next one, a 45, stovepiped with ball ammo about every fifth or sixth shot.


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…”
