ok..it's on a compact size 1911 (springfield ultra compact V10).sorry..but this is my only gun forum.
it started doing this intermittently at first..then the other night it was doing it most of the time..so I checked it in for repair.
The gun will fire a round, then lock open as if it's empty..next round is sitting there waiting to be ramped into the chamber..a quick thumb release of the slide and everything goes into play and I can fire again..and it'll do the same thing. I tried the cheap wolf ammo, lower charge, as well as the good speer gold dot stuff..didn't seem to matter.Also tried different mags..even an extended 10rd to see if extra spring tension would force the next round up the ramp...anyway..hopefully I'll get my baby back shortly...he's usually backed up near 2 weeks...but wondered if anyone had a speculation as to what the heck is going on.
