Rock Island Armory - Rock Series FS Ultra 9mm 1911 - first impressions

I got a RIA ULTRA FS this week and gave it a workout today. Mine is the HC model. I agree with you about the ambi safety - that’s gotta go. It digs into my right hand when I’m shooting. Mine fed, fired, extracted and ejected perfectly. My only issues were four times it locked back with one round left in the mag. You have anything like this happen with yours? Probably operator error but every time at the same point? I dunno.
I took a file to the back left side the ambi safety on ultra 40 doublestack
 
Looks like a file might fix both my issues... Pretty benign as far as gun problems go. I’m happy with it!
 
I'm jealous. I wanted to use my 1911 9mm in a match next Saturday! Dang it.....but I got the G19 that's going well......hmmmmm.....

Things that make you go hmmm aren't always true, but lots of time they are.

Sorry for the hijack.
