Houston 1911 Colt 9 competition problem

[Jim Watson]

There aren't any tough Army inspectors checking for stuff like that any more. Most "1911s" on the market today are pretty much fakes.
My Colt 1991A1 9mm loads easily but I have had to deal with other peculiarities.

I have never had a problem with Colt 9mm 1911 mags. Have used them for many years in my .38 Super to 9mm. conversions.

As I stated "problematic", I have a couple of factory mags for my Springfield that insert fine but will not drop on their own. Have had similar problem with some 45 acp mags as well. I bought the different manufacturers mags to cover my bases and insure that all 3 9 mm 1911s will drop mags as they're supposed to.

The Springfield is sleeping at the store waiting for the 5 days delay time. I will do some testing with the mags and break it before any match. Sound like I will do the rimfire match again in April. Then heading to my first Steel match with 9 mm on May if the mags promo arrives on time. I will take the advice of highlander 5 on mags.
