I have a new Kimber and the slide is not closing all the way, does it need breaking in, is the shell to large, more oil, or better cleaning. Any info would be...
We really need more information. How often does this happen? What kind of ammo are you using? If you loading your own, it could be that they are too long or...
Thanks for all the tips. I did change the spring. I didn't know that putting in a lighter spring would affect anything but the extraction of the shell. It...
I have a mint S & W Model 52-2, but no bushing wrench (or take down tool). I cannot find one on the S & W or Brownells websites. I would appreciate some advice...
Barrel bushing wrenches for the 52 are listed in the Numrich catalog at $1.95. The website is: e-gunparts.com. You should be able to get one directly from S&W,...
Are you using factory ammo? I had that problem with my Kimber. It was because I was not crimping my reloads tight enough. Scott [Non-text portions of this...
Chris, I hold down the small button with my thumb nail and unscrew the bushing with my fingers. I've never had a wrench but I do know one was made for it. ...
Chris, I agree with what Jim said.......It would seem to me that that is the same way to field strip a 1911 Military 45....pushing on the end cap depresses the...

Hi Chris, I agree with Jim, I do the same thing. I have a wrench, but never use it because I think it will scratch the gun. George ... From: Jim Butler To:...
Isn't it simply an Allen wrench? My Springfield Champion uses a simple Allen wrench. Sometimes I can turn it out by hand, but it's kind of difficult. I...

Is there any truth to the slide mount having less recoil? I do not see how, one would think the recoil would be worse. George ... I use an ... the gun, ... but...
... George, Here's why I think slide-mounts have less recoil. Putting the scope on the slide increases the mass of the slide, which means that for a given load...

Doug, Good explanation, but have to ask about one aspect that's you didn't cover: With a slide mount, wouldn't the higher center of mass of the slide, ...
Larry - I think that you may be right about what you experienced when you added the Doctor sight on a slide mount on your gun shooting hot loads. However,...

Dave. I don't understand how the difference in height of a slide vs. frame mount has any bearing: the frame mount system doesn't add to the reciprocating mass...
Larry, If mounting something on the frame does not change the recoil, then why do people put frame weights onto say a Model 52 S&W to reduce recoil? I have 2...
My 1911 has a slide mounted red dot, I shoot the same ammo out of an iron sight 1911 so I experience the recoil from both. Regardless of mass, momentum, moment...
Hi Group, Looking for any suggestions on what can be done to my Browning MarkIII 9mm to improve my shooting (other than practice of course which I can do)....
