I just took my new 1911B to the range today and went through 150 rounds. On four separate occasions the slide did not lock back after the last round was fired. When this occurred I manually locked the slide back and the magazine was difficult to release. With the slide back on all four occasions, when the magazine did manage to disconnect the slide released. I did a full takedown and clean before taking it to the range, is this merely break in issues or is there something I should have looked at? Thanks!

Unfortunately I did not pay attention to which one of the mags <or both> were having the problem. I will pay more attention next time and see if it favors a mag or does it with both. If I decide to replace the slide stop can I use a slide stop from any brand (are they all interchangable)? Thanks for the info!

Well, the verdict is in......it is one of the mags. One of them consistently fails to lock the slide back after the last round. The other mag works flawlessly. Could I get away with just getting a spring to replace the one in the failing mag? Any suggestions here? Thanks!
