I've installed a Chip McCormic hammer/sear set in my Colt series 80 1911 .45and with the gun fully assembled, when I pull the trigger the hammer drops and catches on the edge of the safety cock notch and fails to fire. I have double checked that it is the safety notch that it is catching on.
It would seem to me that I should just file the front edge of that hook so that it clears the sear but I wanted to ask if others have had this problem and fixed it before I started filing away and maybe mess something up.
