Handgun Repair Shop

Description

I will NOT work on, repair, or order parts for the cheap "Saturday Night Special" guns. These pistols are poorly made from cast zinc alloy, retailing for approximately $80 to $200. The cast zinc alloy is a relatively soft metal that wears out quickly. By the time they start to malfunction the wear damage is beyond repair and they become unsafe to fire. The best thing to do with these guns when they begin to malfunction is to cut them up and dispose of them to remove them from the firearms marketplace. I used to have the names of the manufacturers of these poorly made guns listed right here.

Smith & Wesson is committed to producing firearms of the highest quality. To accomplish this goal, we are constantly evaluating and monitoring the safety, reliability and performance of our products. As part of this ongoing evaluation process, we have received reports, in an extremely small number of cases, that the firing pin safety plunger of the SW1911 pistol can become disabled, creating a situation where the slide may jam and render the firearm inoperable. This only pertains to certain Smith & Wesson Model SW1911 pistols bearing serial numbers JRD0000 to JRD4750.

I have been called upon to provide an expert inspection on why some of these guns blew up in a responsible shooter's hand. What I found in examining the faulty pistol was that the manufacturer had cut the barrel chamber too short. This caused the loaded cartridge to jam into the end of the chamber, crimp the outside of the cartridge case down so hard on the bullet that the bullet could not leave the case when fired.
