1911 help!
Saturday, May 27, 2023, 17:16

I have never owned a 1911. So I picked up a Springfield Garrison in 45acp. I bought a 460 Rowland kit for it in which I installed. Went to range to test it. I usually reload but decided to try some buffalo bore ammo. Shot some and it function fine. So I decided to put low profile adjustable sight on.The factory novak was extremely tight but I got it off. Put new sight on and went to range. The gun fires but leaves spent case in chamber. I can extract cases working the slide by hand. But it doesn't when fired. ANY help is appreciated.
