I have a 1911 Safari Arms that wont extract fully, it looks like the fired case is hitting the next case in the mag and stopping, either by pressure (friction) from the next round, or from hitting the next round's case mouth.
When I shoot one round at a time, it functions OK, extracts and ejects as designed, and the slide locks to the rear.
I clipped a full coil off a mag spring to see if less mag spring pressure would help, i. e. not push the next round up as "tightly", but it still jams.
I tried Colt, Kimber and Novak mags, all the same problem.
I've put an empty fired case in the slide, held by the extractor, and shaken it up, down and sideways, the case holds tight.
Help!
