Well done, QK. It's good for all of us to review procedures for our weapons periodically. I'd hope that others who have similar links for their weapons-of-choice would post them, as well.

If we eventually fix up a reference section this is one of many things we could have available.

I am sure for those new to the platform this could be regarded as vital info.

I agree Chris this and one on revolver check out need to go in there

Can you say "Sticky"

It's not a sticky yet, so it's worth a bump to the top.

Great post! I am new to 1911s and I recently purchased a Para SSP. I performed all of the test and everything was fine until the functioning test. I can't rack the slide with the trigger pressed! Is this a malfunction with the gun?

Thanks! I just checked out my Springfield and everything is fine. I appreciate the info!

I'm a new member, but I have been shooting 1911's of various types since the 1970's. This is the first time I have ever seen all this information in one place.

Thanks.

was good to commit to memory, even though I carry the XD45 my 1911 is a very close backup.
