4 failure too feeds in first 50 rounds 1 in the last 50. Round was in the chamber slide was quarter inch from closing.

New gun new mags, did I not lube it enough? The last 25 were perfect.

I'd run about 200 rounds thru to break in, then assess.

Take a pic. I would love to see how exactly it's getting jammed up. Make sure your not limp wristing it.

Did you clean the gun before shooting? What kind of ammo?

blazer and remington it was cleaned and lubed i shot another 100 and it did it 3 times with 50 rounds of blazer and 0 times with remington it's going back though front sight sheared off. So they can fix it when it's there.

By "it was cleaned and lubed", do you mean you wiped it off and squirted some oil in random spots?

Or, you completely field stripped it, wiped off all old grease and oil, applied fresh oil to all the required parts, and then cycled it multiple times and dry-fired while giving it a function check, before you ever fired the first round?

I don't mean to impugn your knowledge of the 1911, but your posts give no indication of your experience or knowledge or abilities.

it was detailed cleaned lubed in the proper places. I did fire another 100 rounds of blazer 1 malfuction might of been the ammo's fault seemed like the round was to far in the brass.
