How many rounds should one fire through a new 1911 style pistol to allow for a break-in period? (Please no 1911 bashing.)
I recently purchased a new Kimber Classic Stainless and it is failing to feed about 1/100 rounds with factory ball ammo and Wilson mags. The case is catching partially into the chamber leaving the slide about 1/2 way open. I have another Kimber Classic that is very reliable, but I've had it for several years and can't remember how long it took to break in. I wan't this one to be reliable too, but I don't want to send it back to the factory prematurely.
Thanks,
Vincent
