I thought I had worked the kinks out of my 2nd generation colt by replacing the recoil spring, but apparently something else is wrong. If the slide is allowed to drop free on its own the hammer follows. I'm not sure if it is generating enough momentum to set a round off, but I'm worried it might. Obviously something needs to be fixed before firing again. Any suggestions?
