1911 Colt in 9 mm

Jim,

I'm glad to hear of your reliable gun. Most people seem to have some trouble with 9 mm 1911s. I am determined to get mine running 100 % and I have the time to do it (I hope I don't have to live to 100 to make it.).

Yes, I ordered a 10 # spring along with the heavy duty extractor. If that's too weak, I'll try some of my .45 recoil springs. I'll mess with it some more soon, probably next week. I need to check the clearance around the extractor relief cut in the barrel, etc, etc.
