Put about 50 rounds through my Colt. Wilson drop-in safety and C&S hammer functioned flawlessly and gun was more than comfortable. Once I put the Harrison Retro rear sight in, I think I'll be done with it. I may also pop an Ed Brown full diameter slide stop in but that's about it. I did get one failure to extract where it didn't fully eject the spent case but picked up a fresh round under it, though that had nothing to do with the mods. It was CCI Brass Blazer 230 ball and I suspect it was a weak load that didn't fully cycle the slide...kinda like you might get if you limp wrist it...but I'm not a limp-wrister) First time it's ever done that and I'm not too worried about it.

A good day at the range is better than work...sounds like the Colt is doing fine. Ammo or mags is usually the problem. Don't shoot factory stuff so have no opinion on the Blazer.

I didn't have anything loaded so my factory stash came in handy. So far I haven't had any issues with my handloads and I really need to set down and catch up at the loading bench.
