When a shell casing hits you in the face, it means JMB is giving you a "brass shower." Normal for a 1911.When I moved back to MA I brought a Colt series 80 from CA. I didn't love it and sold it. Then I bought a series 70 from an NESer, had it tuned and purged of MIM parts, and it's great. It runs great, for the most part, but I have 2 questions:
1.) it ejects shells in 100 different places, randomly, including in my face- What's up with that?
2.) after about 100 rds, it doesn't jam, but the slide still has about .25" to completely shut so I just whack the back of it and it's fine- Again, what's up with that?
As for the 1911 not going fully into battery, again, that's normal. They were designed that way.
