Dean, this thread belongs in the Comedy Zone!

How did you put the safety on and the strap over your now “un-cocked” 1911?


(Otherwise it’s a mystery to me) I don’t think it cooked off.

ETA: Let’s say you did everything you said and it discharged.

1) Did it break or unsnap your retainer strap?
2) Did it cycle a new round or jam every step in the firing sequence afterwards?
3) Did it pass or fail a functions test after the discharge?



Answer to first question way above - TTBOMK you can’t activate the safety lever unless the gun is cocked!
