Hi all.
My Sig 1911 TacOps sometimes fails to extract/ double feeds. It shows itself as the empty case being left loosely about 1/4" out of the chamber, with the slide trying to feed the next round in the magazine.
Notable points:
-The brass left in the chamber is loose, never stuck, it will just fall out if I open the slide and tilt it back.
-The brass that FTEs have signifigant marks from the extractor trying to extract the case.
-It only happens when the gun is dirty and HOT. The hotter the gun, the more it stops, but if it's cold, it's as smooth as can be.
-Does this with ALL types of ammo and mags.
-Chamber seems a tiny bit rough, and carbon seems to build up in little peaks in the chamber.
-Extracts and ejects perfectly and consistently with no mag in the gun.
I suspect a rough chamber is the issue but I can't be sure and fitting a new barrel isn't something I want to do just on a hunch.
What say you, internet? I'll appreciate any help.
