I like my piece.

I got one...and I had a few issues with mine. Didn't seem to like the Wilson mags and caused the slide stop to travel out of the gun, but that may be attributed to a loose plunger tube. I just had to re-stake the plunger tube on mine and I changed out the slide stop for a 10-8. Brand new, with about 350 rounds through it and already having issues - go figure! [rolleyes] I plan on swapping out a lot of the MIM parts on mine. I replaced the guide rod with an Ed Brown GI and changed out the recoil spring for a Wolff 18.5 and changed out the firing pin spring for a Wolff too. The gun runs a hell of a lot smoother now!
 
im about 200 rounds into it and havent had a problem yet, hoping to run a course or two over the summer with it to see how it does.
 
I've had mine for a while now. I added a viridian C5L lazer light combination. Heck of a nightstand gun with a ten round magazine and Winchester Ranger 230 gr. h p ammo. Eats everything that I've fed it so far.

I have one of the originals, no problems. It does operate more smoothly when wet however.

You still talking about the gun at the end?
 
Mine is just a lemon! ha I'm kind of kicking myself - I should have got one of those Auto Ordnances and tuned it up! :)
 
I have one with over 2k rounds (most reloads) and not a single problem with various mags. Absolutely love it and would buy it all over again.
