I just got a new SA-35 and wondered if anyone could tell me its date of manufacture. The serial number is HP34XXX. Thanks

My Garrison .45 insists on throwing empty cases erratically - sometimes to the front, sometimes to 8 o'clock, sometimes to the center of my forehead. The extractor seems to be okay. I've read where a lighter recoil spring might help. What about filing a bit off the ejector? It looks awfully long...

Has anyone had dealings with the Springfield Custom Shop? I'm not sure just what services they offer. I've got a new 1911 Garrison and am wondering if they would be willing to install the same fiber optic front sight as comes on the 1911 Ronin.

I want to put a Dawson Precision fiber optic front sight on my 1911 Garrison. As near as I can tell, the slide has a cut .330" wide at the bottom and the factory blade is .180" x .125". Is this the sight I would want? I plan to put on my big-boy pants and try to install it myself. 🙏

I want to put a fiber optic front sight on my SA 1911 Garrison. I understand that it has a proprietary SA cut (rather than Novak) but don't know what height I should get. Also, how big a deal is it to push out the old sight and push in a new one? Best to use Loctite?

This is going to be well within the realm of hypothetical, because I'm afraid the odds of finding an SA-35 within the next year are going to be slim and none. Be that as it may, how much sense might it make to trade a very slightly used CZ 75B Retro for a new SA-35? There's not a &@!* thing...

Odd question for an SA forum, I know, but which would you rather have strictly for range use - a Colt Combat Commander 9mm or a CZ 75B retro?

What does the "SI" (as in "SI GENESEO II USA") roll mark on the 1911 frame indicate?
