1911 barrel feed ramp gap issue
I have an old 1911 where the chamber opening is flush with the end of the feed ramp. I understand that it is supposed to be 5/32". I was thinking about an easy fix, as it is constantly nose diving. BTW, Many different magazines, same problem.
If I was to put a 5/32" shim in the frame, so that when the barrel links back, I get the proper gap, does that sound like a workable solution?
