Hello All Picking up 1st true 1911

Good info thank you,
I would like to know if there is any other solvent/cleaner that is duty finish safe other than the smelly Kano Kroil listed the manual. That stuff is rough. A lube/cleaner would be nice that is safe for the finish. Beautiful gun but what a primadonna.

Any CLP will do. You can use MliPro, Hoppes Elite, M-Pro 7, Tetra etc.... The duty finish is tough off the top of my head I cannot think of a main stream cleaner that would harm it. It is a "treatment" not a coating or finish.
 
Well trying to follow break-in program cleaning and oil after every 50. Only 150 downrange to date though. So far flawless function almost to easy to double tap. The only bummer is that at 53 I notice the front post is blurry with my right eye opposed to left one so off to the eye doctor Monday. Big difference compared to my old LDA single stack Para.
