Are there other Big Hawg owners out there or past owners? I purchased one and received it this past week. I have shot it three times and had FTF problems each time using ball ammo.
I like everthing else about this gun (weight, accuracy, capacity 14+1, grip size, style) but I can not carry it as a SD gun because of the FTF problem. I have pinged Para to see if they think it is a lemon or can resolve it somehow (stronger spring).
There may be a breakin period too but none of my other 1911 (or others) needed such a breakin period. I broke it down and oiled it up but still had some FTF today.
I have been looking for that perfect OC/SD gun in 45acp. While I love my Sig P220, its capacity of 8+1 (like my other 1911's) made me look for a higher capacity model. With 14+1 and extension magazines making it 15+1 I thought I found the perfect 45. The jury is still out....
