I recently purchased a slightly used Sig Sauer 1911 scorpion edition. Right away I was getting feed jams once or twice each 8 round magazine.
I researched and heard that I should try better magazines. So the gun shop I bought it at gave me a free Wilson Combat magazine. I loaded a magazine and fired it off in the back yard. No issues. I then watched some Hickok45 videos on how to clean the gun and followed along. I oiled the gun well and put her back together.
Last night I went to the range with a friend. I shot 50 round through it and had at least one jam every magazine. The only thing that calmed me down was my friends 2 1911's jammed now and again too.
He told me I need to put 1000 or so rounds through it to break it in.
Whats your take?
