Ruger 1911 Question I Just Bought???

[stu1ritter]

I use a SR1911 as the base for my Nelson .22 conversion. I replaced the Ruger trigger with a target trigger when I set it up for target shooting. There are many replacement triggers that will fit right in without any of the slop that comes with the original trigger. The SR1911 receiver is about 8oz. lighter than the steel version and makes for a very nice handling pistol.

Interesting. I have two SR1911s in 45 and 10mm and neither of my triggers are anything close to what you've described. Maybe call Ruger and explain it to them. Could be a warranty issue.

Done a lot of fitting on my pair of modestly priced 1911's. They are now to my liking and standards, they work flawlessly.

Everything can be improved with thought & effort.

In M1911's I own everything from Colts to RIA's to Kimbers.
About 3 years ago, got a Ruger SR1911 LW Commander. It quickly became one of my favorite carry guns. Trigger has no such issue as you describe.
This Ruger has exceeded all expectations. 100% reliable and easily outshoots an all-SS Colt Combat Commander I have.

Many good suggestions here - and you may consider contacting Ruger to see what they can do....
