My replied are after your statements. Also I will say you are probably the 3rd or 4th person on this forum that has bought a springfield and has had to send it back after the first shooting. I will continue to preach, spend a few extra hundred dollars and get a gun that doesn't have to get sent back for a repair on a brand new gun. You get what you pay for.

 

 

or buy a taurus.. I,m 2 for 2 and did not send any back..

Interesting thread...Ever since joining this forum i have been getting the itch to pick up another pistol. Been considering the RO 1911. Overall i have heard good things. Will probably read this thread over again while i consider what i want to pick up . gonna search around see what else i cant find about them on here. Always great info on here.

I did take the gun apart tonight for the first time, and cleaned the "****" That was in there , out of the gun. BLACK GREASE

 

Maybe that was it? There's only 1 way to find out

 

 

Secondly i found that i dont like the trigger because of the short pull,( besides the serrations. )I know this has an adjustable trigger. I wonder if i can add some slack to her

 

Aaaaaaaaaaaalways clean and lube it before you shoot it. The crap in there is to preserve it in the warehouse/during shipping, not to make it shoot better. There is frequently grit in the grease they use that can potentially lap the surfaces it rubs against.

 

Also, always clean and lube it before you shoot it.

 

In addition, see the above line.
