Is your thumb bumping the slide lock under recoil?

Are you sure you weren't pushing up on the slide stop with your thumb?
Also, if it's a 3 pin frame, check to make sure the slide stop spring is under the top pin, and not over it. Edited to change "release" to "stop". Can't help it, I've shot 1911's allot......... |

I've seen this a few times. Perhaps this is your issue? Ever happened before? How many rounds through the 30? |

I've shot a little under 1000 rounds and NEVER had this problem. So no it's not me or my thumb messin up. I think it is the slide spring. Because I just installed the extened release. I replaced the spring like you said SPIFF. It actually feels a little smother thanks SPIFF. I'll have to wait till my next day off to hit the range up and see if it has made a difference. I'll let you all know how it goes when I find out my self. Thanks for all your help everyone.

Thumb is hitting slide stop. Have seen it many many times. EXtended slide stop will make it worse. Learn to shoot properly and your problem will be cured.

You most likely installed it incorrectly. We reinstalling your trigger pins you did them in the incorrect order.The smaller of the two pins must be installed first. This allows the spring on the slide stop to sit UNDER the small pin. If your spring is BEHIND the pin it will cause the slide stop to move upwards all the time. So check the placement of your slide stop spring. If it's behind the small pin you need to remove it and put thesmall pin in first before installing the large pin with the slide stop. Take a peek and see where the spring is sitting. J |

I repositioned my spring and it feels much better. I'll let you all know how it's working out when I get a chance to hit the range again. Thanks everyone...

you won't need to hit the range to test it. Remove the magazine. pull back on the slide. If it's locks open without a magazine. The spring is not incorrectly. If it slams forward like it should, you're fine. J |
