Re: 1911's vs. other semi-automatics
Yes, it used to be that you bought a brand new 1911 and the first thing you did was ship it to a gunsmith to get it working. That should no longer be the case. And frankly, with some mechanical ability and sufficient knowledge of the 1911 design its not hard to do your own work. dThere is a plethora of 1911 gunsmithing information available and an entire industry of quality aftermarket parts available, though with a quality 1911 even that shouldn't be necessary. I have a 70's series commander that will feed empty .45ACP cases reliably.
