Recent post about my 1911 mags not firing a full mag....
When I first got my gun I saw a co2 spring that's beefier than the one that was in the gun!
At the time, thinking the spring may help with fire rate or just assuming more power = happier me, I swapped for the bigger spring!
Knowing now it only effects the recoil I have swapped them back. As I have since purged and oiled the mags, I'm now getting a full mag plus 15 shots before it's out of gas!
This won't help with the cold issues but I feel better knowing that atleast the gun and mags are sound and I was the problem all along!
I'm not giving up on finding a cure for the cold freezing up the mags outdoors but I'm glad that I can atleast shoot full mags now.
To all who commented trying to help me, I thank you but thankfully the issue was the idiot behind the gun and not the gun itself!
