All guns should work out of the box. Period.

If it doesn't, it's going back. How much I like it will dictate whether I'll keep or sell it when it does get back.

I have had problems with nearly every brand of gun out of the box, including the PERFECT blOcK.

What I perceive as a "break in" period for a 1911 is the time it takes from when the gun feels rough (slide action, trigger feel and break) to when it feels buttery smooth. If a 1911 doesn't work, it's going back.
