[QUOTE="Jefpainthorse, post: 1739182, member: 11766"] When you get around 5,000 rounds see how the barrel lugs and slide has peened ... then get back with me. When it stops ejecting brass into a neat pile... lets see if that ejector can be tuned... and how many miles will you get on the stock springs? Most poorly fitted guns are over-sprung at the factory to over come the poor fitting---in turn they chew their guts up early. After it's shot loose (20 K) a little lets see if refitting the rails to the slide help that RIA... 99% of us won't run a 1911 that hard... if your gun expects to see over 2K a year pop for the extra and get a SA or a Colt or Kimber... (not so sure about the Kimber either) or you can ---just buy 2. or 3 RIA, Auto Ordinance, Citidel, etc. [/QUOTE]
