I've got a 1911 problem, maybe one of y'all can offer me some advice; my magazine is stuck in the magwell (fully inserted), the mag release button is partially depressed and locked into that position, slide fully retracted and the slide stop won't budge. The gun is "frozen" and I'm out of ideas. A trip to the gunsmith may be in order, but I'm hoping somebody here can help me out.
What would cause this to happen in the first place? The mag catch? And how can I remove the magazine and/or release the slide? I'm baffled! A friend of mine who is also into 1911s looked at the pistol and was stumped as well. Gun has about 1,000 rounds thru it with no weird problems before this. Any advice?
TIA,
