Hi, all,
I bought a Fillipino (Charles Daly) 1911 that was real cheap, the intention being to learn on. If I break it, I don't lose much... 4" commander style, but with a full size frame, I think it's an EMS but a bit older than the current models. I'm generally handy with firearms, but not even close to being a gunsmith.
Anyway, the trigger drops the hammer whether I'm depressing the grip safety or not. My first project! I'm planning on buying a new grip safety, safety lock plunger, and plunger spring, but figured I'd better check with the experts and see if I'm way off base.
TIA,
Unk
