New 1911 owner question

it should always extract. the extractor may need some tension adjustment. when breaking it in, i'd use oil. grease is a little thick, and add to a tight slide/frame fit, and you may have problems. i usually use a slurry of JB Bore paste and oil to lap the slide, instead of the 500rd break-in. my 1911's have run great from the get go. the only one that gave me FTFeed's was my EMP. i adjusted the extractor on the first outing, and...

EMP or XD sub compact

There's something about the shape or weight distribution that makes a 1911 feel better than most other handguns. I'll assume this makes it 4 cents toward some type of 1911

Scooter, thanks for the new site I need to add in my favorites. Checked my extractor, well within spec. with no visable signs of weakness. The dam die penetrant was fun getting off though. Just waiting for my new spring. Dammit Jim, I'm a mechanic not a gunsmith! (Dr. Mccoy). And after this: 1911 Magazine Analysis: Feeding Time I can't wait to get the magazines the heck out of here.

No. Sorry, but your XD is worth more than the RIA. I have not owned nor fired the RIA, however, if you do a quick search, I think you will find if you add about $350 more to your buy cash, couple with the $75...you have both in your arsenal.
Your call. Best of luck.

One of the cops I work with carries the LW version. She liked my MC Operator, but it was too big/heavy for her, so she went with the LW Champion Operator.
I've put a couple hundred rounds through it. I like it a lot; it is very accurate and comfortable to shoot. Takedown is a little goofy if you're used to a standard GI takedown. You have to use a little plastic clip on the guide rod to ...

Put a little more bling polished SS parts and you are GTG for a BBQ!
Kidding aside, those really are beautiful grips.

What guns do you have? What else haven't you shot that you might like rifle or pistol? Heck you could get into a decent AR for a little more than a good 1911. Just to have a 1911 is great but what else can you do with that money (gun wise of course). Not talking you out of it just wondering.

How is the GI?
I've been looking at one as an inexpensive starter 1911 to get me into the breed.

I have the Desantis Speed Scabbard for my Kimber,they are well made and the quality is A One,about $65.00 if you order it directly thru Desantis web site.
These both are Desantis,the design on the right is their Mini Slide.

One reason not to do it, they probably would not fit in the gun. Thus, you would have to increase the size of the grip. It is not a good idea.

beautiful pics...I've been going back and forth between VZ grips and getting some of those really nice looking wood ones from Sarge's the finer grain.

i have yet to own a 1911, i am up in the air between the .45 and the 9mm, when i buy mine, i will be going for a black stainless springfield model, thats all i have narrowed down, well that and i know which grips i am getting but that is a surprise too!
I like the emp alot, my thought is...
if you go EMP then 9mm
or
fullsize, go big or go home, get a 6" .45 model

I just bought some tw25b. From what I read its suppose to be very good. I think I am gonna start running grease on all my pistols. It just stays where it should for longer periods of time. YMMV

Get that EMP, you won't regret it.
Nice and flat, smooth as butter, and it's a Springer, what's not to like?

I'm not an expert but I think all the mechanical actions are completed by the right side lever and the left side on an ambi safety is only a lever not an actual mechanical device.
