Hello All,
any advice here? I have a LNIB Springfield Armory 1911 that won't take full mags with the slide forward. If I fill an 8-rounder to 8 it won't go in the last 1/4 inch w/o a hard shove. Seven bullets in an 8-round works fine. Same with a 7-round magazine. With seven bullets the mag has to be shoved hard to fit. If the slide is back, it fits fine.
A guy at the gunstore said its an easy fix. Another at the range said it just has to be worn in. What is the verdict?
