Welcome to the Colorado AR-15 Shooters Club Discussion Forums.
Yeah, honestly I didn't know this was an issue with 1911s. I've never owned one and it's a good thing too, because I most certainly would have ruined it by now.Originally Posted by KevDen2005

It appears ir could be a hammer follow issue. Hammer followed 1 of 3 times. Hammer caught on the half cock notch tho.
Guess I need to give you some more business Bert.

My caption didn't make it... 45acp after a 1911 slam fire. Weak firing pin spring caused it. Shooter had chunks of brass in the face and safety glasses. Cut and burned hands. Mag floor plate parts penetrated the skin on the belly.
Hammer follow sounds like the consensus. Never had this issue in any of my 1911's, so I can't say definitively.
I've had an ND as well. About seven years ago. I thought I had downloaded my firearm at the range, pointed it back down range and pulled the trigger to drop the hammer. Talk about something that seriously will wake you up.

I don't make the rules. I just think them up and write them down.
