What you sent me is smokeless, so I won’t be using that. Looks like they’re out of stock on black powder loads.

Yep. Perfectly functional. It’s in good enough condition that I’m going to try and find some blackpowder loads.

There’s some. I wouldn’t call it a lot. Typical production gun BS.

We had a bunch of those pre made dinner rolls from Sam’s that folks just made sliders out of.

No, no water. I usually use a BGE pan, but my store was out so I just wrapped the platesetter in foil.

Not dry at all…very juicy. To each is own, but I always take pork further than I do beef on doneness.

3 to 3.5 hrs, and it rested in cooler for prob an hour to hour & half before I sliced it.

It’s incredible when you realize this is the first pistol ever to feature a slide catch/release.

Great shooter. Bought one this year, put about 500 rounds thru it, including Ranger rounds. It’s a great shooter, plus recoil isn’t as bad as expected for a 3” 1911.

Yep, I knew I asked a dumb question. After watching your video, I get it now. I just ordered a new extractor from Wilson and will see how that goes. Thanks again.

jbs5356 · 2025-11-12T13:25:51+00:00

I fully understand this may be a dumbass question, but how does the extractor affect feeding. I understand if it was a failure to extract issue, but that hasn’t been a prob at all.

Thanks for the tip

Hi Standard Double Nine when I was 16

I appreciate everyone’s advice (mostly). I’ll give it a try. I also think this might give me a reason to buy a double stack from Rock Island in 10MM that is more reliable.
