I have a GSG 1911-22 that shoots great with CCI Mini mags. I read that the plastic guide rods tend to break. So, I purchased the “Ultimate Package” from ZR tactical to help improve the accuracy and dependability of the pistol. The parts included a full length guide rod made of stainless steel, a slide alignment cone, bushing, guide rod plug and new guide rod spring.
After installing the parts I went to the outdoor range and this is when the problems began.
When I racked the slide to chamber the first round everything appeared fine. When I pulled the trigger the gun went bang as expected. The slide cycled, the empty casing ejected and the next round was chambered. Then when I pulled a trigger the hammer fell forward and all there was was a click. After thumb cocking the hammer I pulled the trigger again and bang as expected. Once again the slide cycled ejecting the old casing and chambering the next round and the hammer again is in the fully cocked position. When I pulled the trigger again the hammer fell forward and click. I thumb cocked the hammer again pulled the trigger and bang as expected. The same sequence happened on every round.
After getting home from the range I replaced all the old parts. I went back to the range and again shot CCI Mini mags very consistently with no problems.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
