WE 1911A1 grip safety slipping
11 April, 2017, 00:59
For some reason my 1911 grip safety isn't working as it should. It locks on but with a little trigger pressure it still fires. The main safety works as it should though so it's not really a big issue I just want it to be fully functional.
Has the spring sear gone soft due to age (5+ years, all original parts) or is it wear to a part on the mechanism? Any 1911 experienced people had a similar issue?

HI mate, the leaf spring could have weakened.. Remove it and inspect it and bend it outwards a little, see if it improves things.
ATB, Marc..
