1911 in Action
Am Shooting Journal ^ | 12/9/2016 | J Hines

This is for all you 1911 lovers, yes it is poetry in motion when you view the action while the pistol is being fired.

Or as another viewer puts it "the blow by at ignition before the bullet leaves the barrel. The shock wave behind the base of the bullet on exit. And the particles of un-burnt propellant after everything else has cleared the chamber".

"Ach sooo ! The bullet has indeed left the barrel before the slide starts to move back.

I am also impressed that the gun remains strong enough to withstand repeated firing in spite of all the metal that was cut away to show the inner workings." See the footage here.

I bought my 625 as soon as they came out in the late 80’s.

Originally, it was my pin gun.

I bought mine for the same reason! It joined a Power Grand Master 629 for that job. But it bothered me that I wasn't shooting the Grand Master since I stopped Pin Blasting, so I sold it back to the person from whom I bought it, as I knew he had regretted selling it to me.

Pin shooting was so much fun!
