Hey all. I'd like to say hello as I'm new to the forum and thought I'd introduce myself.
Let me start by saying: I owne a few Rugers and have for many years now. My first was a single-six, which hooked me into pistols AND Ruger, over 28 years ago. Yesterday I picked up my first 1911; an sr1911 CMD. While I've shot a few 1911's in my day, I've never owned one before. I've stripped it and cleaned it up good. Bought two 8 round Mec-Gar magazines and one 10 round Wilson Combat magazine. 4 boxes of Magtech ball ammo and 2 boxes of Blazer Brass both 230 gr.
My question (s): What can I expect during the break in of my new toy? What can I expect out of the sr1911 in general? Any helpful hints or suggestions? How do you all like your pistols?
Thank you all in advance.
