I own a Springfield Government Model in 45acp and having extra large hands I installed a drop in grip safety to help with its tendency to pinch the web of my hand. After words I went and tested it to make sure that I had everything back together right, specifically sear spring alignment (had issue once with previous gun going full auto on me after sear spring alignment error...not fun) everything worked just fine.
Then later I noticed that if the gun was in the half cock position (not using it for safety, just happened to not get hammer all the way down while "decocking" it, it was unloaded) that if I pulled the trigger the hammer would fall the rest of the way. I had never tried this before, so I am not sure if this is correct or if something is out of alignment. I have had no problems with this gun as far as double tapping or going full auto on me, so I know the sear spring alignment is ok. If anyone can help me with this, I would be very grateful.
Thanks all and keep up the good work, I really enjoy THR.
