My buddies pocketlite thumb safety holds back full cock OK BUT if safety is applied on half cock and trigger pulled it seems to DROP HAMMER ALL THE WAY DOWN! This seems extremely dangerous to me is something wrong?:confused:
 
My "Lady Elite" mustang does the same. Like the series '80 1911's the gun has a "shelf" without a hook on the hammer as saftey notch. There's not enough force in the 1/8" hammer fall to fire the gun. Rather disconcerting I must admit. You may wanna look here though. OOPS! The link to recalls is down. There's a mainspring gismo that is part of a recall on basically all mustang and gov. 380's. Give Colt a call, they sent me one for free.
