I wish I didn't like 1911s damnit!!! I've had 3 so far and all were finicky #####es!
Turns out the Dan Wesson doesn't like the factory reloads I was feeding it... and I have like 600 rounds left sitting here in my safe and no other .45 to fire them through. I guess I'll have to sell the ammo or something.
Damnit, back to expensive factory ammo
On the plus side the gun is deadly accurate, the trigger is bloody awesome, and for the first time ever I actually made groupings that resemble groupings, and not random shots on an 8.5x11 piece of paper
Many failures to feed... I did some reading on the net and others have had issues with reloads as well. The match barrel and chamber are picky and apparently only the best of the best will feed. My initial impression is that this isn't the type of gun that will feed anything you throw in it... then again its only had about 300rnds fired through it so far, so maybe when things loosen up it will be less picky.
