Interesting that my least reliable 1911 was a stainless Colt Officer model in 45 acp.
never could get that thing to run 100% on even FMJ much less JHP.
which why would anyone (me) buy an officers model unless to carry it?
2 trips to Colt, one to my Gunsmith and me fiddling with it never did get it 100%.
now I got 2 other Colts that run like sewing machines.
Likely my most reliable 1911's are a Springer Range Officer, a Dan Wesson, a Rock Tac II in 10 MM, a ATI Titan (and this is a defender size) and a springer ultra compact (alloy frame officers).
I also have 2 taurus 1911 that run very well, 2 others were dawgs, they run fine now after some minor work.
so ??
don't know what you or I can get from this other than any weapon can be unusually good or BAD?
