Had the same problem with a new 1911. Extractor was too tight, and breech face needed polishing. Take slide off and put a loaded round's case lip under extractor. Round should be able to "slump" a little, but the round should not fall out when you rotate slide 360 degrees. If too tight, take out extractor (no big deal) and bend it back a wee bit. Get a maintenance book--like the one from Wilson Combat--it'll help alot in doing all of the above. Good luck.
