Hey 'Smiths,
Recently peened the rails on my SA 1911 to try to make a
Bullseye gun. It's my second go at this, the first with an RIA went fine. The Springer has better steel and tighter tolerances, though, and now the gun won't go in or out of battery. The barrel appears to be binding in the chamber area forward of the hood, and possibly I need a lower link. Anyone encounter this before, and any suggestions?
