First range trip with above gun.
Shot 100 rounds through it with zero issues. Prior to the range trip gun passed 40 slide lock reloads with full 8 round mag which is the most difficult round to load, with a mixture of ball and hollow point.
Shot to get zero info with carry ammo. I was very pleased that the group was perfectly centered. 2.75" inches center to center. I really need to step up my game. I'm sure that the gun is way more accurate than that. Maybe I'll shot it off sand bags and see if I can tighten it up.
Checking the feed ramp post range session. Mags used were a mix of Wilson and CMC power mags.
Some quick thoughts on a couple handling characteristics and parts.
1) The Chen gen 2 magwell in combination with additional blending makes for and extremely fast and reliable reload. You really can't miss and long as you give the magwell a glance. It was leaps and bounds better than a standard magwell, which is no surprise. And since it adds no length or width to the gun it
should be standard on every serious use 1911.
2) The combination of Pete's high cut front strap and 25lpi checkering and a .250" grip safety makes for a gun that feels glued to your hand. It "locks in" unlike any other 1911 I've used. It feels phenomenal.
I'm very pleased with how this build in turning out so far. More to come.
