Here is something else I just thought about. Check to see if the heavier recoil spring is tuned to the proper length. This video shows how:

I don't know but it seems like a stronger recoil spring could possibly not let the slide come back all the way not letting it strip the next round correctly. How does it do with 7 round mags? Have you tried using a standard weight recoil spring with the 8 round mags? I always slap the full mag...

I bought an OEM 8-round flush fit magazine for my Tisas Service Model 45 ACP and it functions flawlessly. I bought it at CDNN Sports for $14.99. They still have them in stock. Just type 310 in the search bar and go straight to it. I really like the flush fit, it just looks better than the bumper...

As far as defining a 1911 pistol, it looks like it's different strokes for different folks on this topic. As for me personally, a true 1911 is chambered in 45 ACP. Maybe the 9mm copies should be called 1911M's. I view this like the naming of all the different AK47's on the market today. A true...

I bought a new Taurus G3 and a new Taurus TH9 a few years back and both came from Bainbridge, Georgia. I've shot both of them a good bit and both are super reliable and accurate. Neither one has had any type of malfunction with any kind of ammo I've fed them. Reliability and accuracy are the two...

Yes you did. Taurus relocated from Florida to Bainbridge, Georgia.

I've never bought anything from guns.com, but I've never heard anything bad about them either. The online dealers I have bought guns from with no problems at all are: BudsGunShop.com, GrabAGun.com, LockedLoaded.com and RKGuns.com. Being as this is your first 1911 purchase, you may want to...

I'm not sure if I had ever heard of that brand as I read your thread. Being made in Duluth, Georgia, you would hope it would be easy to contact them if need be. In my firearm experience spanning many years now, I've saw and owned guns from the top manufacturers that were not up to snuff. My...

Hello Lycan, for a range bag I use the one I got from the NRA when I paid my membership dues one time. It's 17" long 9" wide and 10" tall. It can carry 3 - 5 pistols and ammo easy in the center compartment. It has a compartment on each end that holds my earmuffs and glasses in one and my...

Hello, I have a Remington R1 I bought new when they started building them again(in Ilion, NY). It hasn't failed at all from right out of the box. I bought a new Tisas Service Model right before Christmas for $333.00 and it comes with 2 eight round MecGar magazines and it emptied both of them...

Concerning the Alliant powder price increases. Vista Outdoor, the company that bought the Remington ammunition from the bankruptcy sale, sent out emails to all their customers telling them that all prices were going up January 1, 2024. They said they were anticipating a global shortage of...

Thanks, I hope you are having good weather down there. We just came out of an eight day, completely iced over event with some of the coldest days and nights that I haven't saw since the early 90's up here in North Alabama. We managed to weather the ice storm OK though. I just hate to see my next...

Thanks everyone for the kind welcome. I took my Tisas to the range and shot it today and I have zero complaints. It ran like it should. The only thing I didn't like was all my fault. I pushed my grip too hard and got hammer bit. I've shot a lot of 1911's and that was the first time I've been...

Thanks for the nice welcome Blackbeard and Turkey, I really appreciate it. Yeah, my dad was the best. I lost him in Dec. 1980, and I sure miss him. My first 1911 was a Colt Mark IV Series 70 Government Model. I bought it new around 1981. It was a fine shooter unless you tried to let her rip. It...

Hello everybody, they say you're as old as you feel, but I'm not even close to that age yet. I may have an old body that broke down 14 years ago, but I still love to shoot. Sometimes that's about all I can do. Been shooting since I was 4 years old. My dad was a WWII veteran and he started...

It looks like a 1911 chambered in 9MM to me

I'm new to this forum, but here's my two cents worth. My Remington R1 My TISAS SERVICE Model
