I purchased an unfired Colt 1991A1 a few hours ago (parkerized). This is my first new handgun; everything else I own was well worn when I received them. I would be extremely grateful for any advice you have on the following items.
My questions are simple (I hope):
1) How do I go about breaking it in? Does it need lubrication now? What sort of ammunition is it (especially its included magazine) best suited to?
2) I noticed that I have to slightly depress the magazine release to allow the magazine to be inserted. Presumably this could be adjusted, but has anyone had this problem?
3) What precautions should I take for the finish?
Again, thank you for your time.
