Personal experience with Smith & Wesson 1911's

My buddy bought one of the first ones on the market. I have personally shot it many times, and on more than one ocassion I have heard a "click" when I should have heard a "bang."

This was a known issue and he sent it back to be repaired, this was a long time ago. Fast forward to last month, he and I are again at the range. He is firing Winchester white box ammo and gets a "click." I stop what I'm doing and try to fire it. Again a "click" and no bang. I popped the round out of his gun, loaded it into my new Colt S80 and "BANG."

I just shrugged at him and kept shooting, he and I go back and forth about Colt vs S&W. That day, I won. :neener:
