The past two times that I have fired my 1911, it has failed to go completely into battery about 6 times. The round begins to chamber, but the cycle halts with the slide about 1/4 of an inch to the rear of locking. Thumb pressure puts the gun into battery. What could be causing this problem? Or is this normal when breaking in an new gun (so far only 221 rounds through it)? Please no flaming the 1911 or the breaking in period. I see a gun much like any other mechanical device, I believe it takes a little while for the parts to wear to where they fit and function perfectly. Thanks.
