Well this is what boredom can do to an addicted shooter:
I was fondling my Kimber today and noticed that the hammer was getting pushed way back by the slide -- past the point of full-cock -- which is not desireable in a 1911.
Well, I've done this "tweak" plenty of times before, but this time I got impatient and took out the evil "Dremel" tool. Wouldn't you just know it? I guessed wrong on the amount of metal to remove from the hammer, and now I've got another piece for the scrap pile! Dang!
Well, thank God for the Internet & Brownell's! I just ordered another hammer, sear, S&A mag well, and Phillipino Mahogany grips -- overnight of course!
It sucks having my 1911 down for another 3 days -- especially now that the weather is FINALLY clearing up.
