1911 Colt in 9 mm

John D. and Jim (and anyone else interested),

I received the Wilson extractor and the 10# recoil spring in the mail today. You have to adjust the tension in the Wilson extractor, rats (it's absolutely straight when they ship it). I think I got it adjusted pretty well, it takes a lb. or so of force to slide out a case. The old recoil spring was much shorter than the new 10# spring.

I'm ready to head out to the range again--maybe Monday (retirement is tough, but someone has to do it--might as well be me).

Until later.
