I see a lot of knowledgable folks out here so am hoping one of you can help.
Just got my SR 1911 and have about 500 rounds of Federal 230 FMJ through it. The problem is FTF. The rounds get "stuck" about 1/4 inch from all the way in. Usually the first round or two in a mag. I have made sure I'm not babying the slide when I release it, and even locked it back so I could pop the release to strip a round cleanly. Way too many failures. Interestingly it seems to happen more when the gun is cold. Sometimes I have to manually clear an entire mag. It happens less in "normal" action when firing and reloading automatically, but it has a quite a few times.
I bought some CMC mags, they're WORSE.
Help?
