Have an uncommon but not unheard of problem with a new colt gov 1911.
The little plunger, that interacts with the slide stop, to keep the slide stop down while firing, is too short. It just barley touches the slide stop allowing it to flop around freely.
This is giving me some of the expected problems of early lockback and frequent lockback with one round left.
I am wondering if any company sells a longer slide stop plunger, it would be worth it to me to spend 3-5 dollars on a longer plunger to pop in, as opposed to sending the whole gun back to colt and waiting 6-8 weeks.
When I look online all I find are one size fits all plungers and extended slide stops. Figured I would post here to see if anyone had some ideas.
Thanks.
