Looking for gunsmith in/near Monmouth County

Recommended Posts

Looking for a recommendation for a gunsmith in/near Monmouth County for a friend.

They have a GSG 1911 .22LR pistol which previously worked well but now has a lot of failures to feed/go into battery.

They've cleaned it rigorously with no luck.  They don't have the patience/temperament to try to diagnose the issue themselves.

Did the problem ever get figured out?  Interested in the final outcome.

Strangely enough it looks like it was related to the magazine.  If magazine was filled to capacity problem would occur on first two rounds.  If magazine was downloaded two rounds it ran fine.

Try some new, or newer, magazines.  The rolls at the top of the body may have worn or straightened allowing the second round down to interfere with the top round clearing out of the mag.  Downloading two rounds reduces the spring pressure enough that the problem doesn't occur.
