Just wanted to give a range report on my Ballester-Molina.
Before I go shooting a new(to me) gun,this is my usual routine.If the parts are available.
Did a good cleaning and lubrication,replaced the recoil spring,firing pin spring and the magazine spring on the supplied original magazine.I also always fit a recoil buffer.
Shooting range reloads,function was great.No issues,even with the worn magazine the gun came with.
Trigger pull was smooth with very sight creep.Better then most of my other 1911s.
Notwithstanding the old school battle sights and my old eyes,the accuracy was good.
As for the shooting feel,its a little heaver then the Colt 1911.It even has holes drilled in the bottom of the frame. To reduce weight?
No grip safety,so it felt very solid in the hand.
Loved the feel of the steel. Whatever its source,it has that musical sound when you rack it.Like a luger.Nice.
Very enjoyable!
