Actually, I perform a function test on every firearm after I assemble it, and I did in that case (certain habits from the military die hard). Before we did the detailed disassembly and inspected the parts with a jeweler loop, we dropped the slide on a dummy round with the pistol pointed in different directions no less than 20 times. The hammer followed the slide twice. It had never "doubled" on me during live fire, though.You're getting lax -I'm pretty sure you were taught to always perform a function check (unloaded) after cleaning and before loading up. As has been said, trigger/sear/hammer setups that have been messed with by Bubba Q. Smith are about the only way a 1911 will do that. I have a lot of expereince with smithing 1911's and I don't mess with the sear engagement surfaces unless I have to, ceramic stones used tediously little by little at that point.
