As mentioned in a thread on training I put up,* I had the slide release on a Colt 1991A1 break at approx 1000rnds into the course. The gun was modified by a smith, but the slide release was stock Colt. Exact rnd count on the gun is unknown, as I purchased it used, but I do not believe the gun had a high rnd count on it when I purchased it (seller claimed well under 1000 and from the pristine condition of the gun, seemed right) and I have put approx another 5k on it, so it's easily under 10k total.
First time that's ever happened to me with a 1911. Are there any specific user errors that could cause that I should be aware of? Put it down to a bad part and forget it? Ever have that happen to you?
