    1911 help

    I took my mc op apart for cleaning and after I reassembled the gun I noticed this problem. I'll cock the hammer by thumb or by racking the slide and it will catch in the proper full cock notch, then when I pull the trigger the hammer falls to the half cock rather than all the way to the firing pin. I noticed after dry firing several times and saw that the hammer had not fallen all the way. Can anyone diagnose this problem? Thanks for the help

      how far down did you take it. I am thinking the sear, trigger-return grip safety spring may be to blame. Sometimes it isn't quite in there right but you can still slide the mainspring housing back on.

        Sounds like the sear is not seated right. Take it apart and reassemble.
