I can't wait to see them. You have some beautiful custom work!
New Gun Tread “NO POLITICS!”

Put 100 round through the Staccato P today after cleaning and lubing it. Ran their match ammo.
Had many failure to feed malfunctions. Will try again next weekend before calling the manufacturer.

Takes about 1-200 rounds to break it in, might actually be the ammo. Some won’t slide up the feed ramp on the barrel. Try cheaper range ammo
I run S&B in mine flawlessly the in-house ammo has given me some shit go figure. Have a no clean Staccato P at 10k rounds with only oiling running it to failure. Also some may not like this but I lock my slides back for about a week on new guns. Have noticed a slight shift when they swapped from the grey bag to the black those newer ones seemed to need more help from me than previous purchases. The magazine can cause issues as well as they are tuned mags not glock mags. Can you repeat the malfunction hand cycling thru a magazine? Does it only occur when firing? Did you try some round nose? Let's also not forget what it's most likely not but limp wristing can cause feeding failures. I would try different ammo first. Hope you get it running as the Staccato P is a nice balance when working correctly.
I run round in all except 2. One is a 38 super comp and other is a 9mm major, only comes hollow from what I can find. My carry I run a few different defense rounds though. Spring might be too stiff and one reason they get swapped first thing.
Some really don't like hollow and you can always tune for it but I find it runs smoothest in 45acp 9mm luger is hit and miss. Know you have to look sometimes for the ammo your particular gun likes to eat. The best way to ensure you get what you want is to load your own but I understand for most that's getting too into it.
Wish I had the time to load
The match in-house OTM ammo is crazy accurate and consistent so it sucks it is getting stuck on the feed ramp (I think).
Failure to feed occurs when putting in a fresh mag and loading the first round. It also occurs at different points throughout a magazine.
I think I'm just gonna run +P+ ball ammo through it. I think S&B loads their stuff really hot. I had a Roland Special glock and the S&B 124 really activated the compensator.
One thing I will say, is that the ergonomics, accuracy and fit and finish are great.
The spring sounds like its too stiff and not going to the rear all the way. Lock it in the open position for awhile or swap the spring to a lower spring rate, stock is 12lbs I think, drop to a 10lbs and it should run smooth
Reminds me of the crappy old Les Baer 1911s, they wouldn't even listed to you bitch about their horribly fit slides until you'd certified that you'd run a minimum of 500 rounds through them. Of course that was hard to do since they jammed continuously...
Put 200 rounds of 115 S&B (effectively +p+ loaded) through it and works great now.

I told you S&B fucks in Staccato!
it absolutely does. I will say that a few rounds got hung up on the feed ramp but after two magazines that stopped. I think the gun was just super tight from the factory.
Just means you have that much longer before it's shot out.
In a 1911 remember that the recoil spring and the mainspring work as a system.
Anyone else going to try and get 'the bitcoin'? I figure it will be a pain especially tracking down two but I put out word with my suppliers so time will tell.
I've had a couple of Korth NightHawks and wouldn't rate them any higher than 90's Performance Center S&W revolvers. Also Im now at the point that I won't spend that much money on collector guns I won't shoot due to value, pretty much the reason I sold all my personal high-end 1911s and my Smith collection and moved it into MGs. No matter how much you shoot an MG, the value keeps going up.
I don't resale, if I get hands on will shoot the crap out of it. I'm never saving for the next guy and I always get at least two. One for me and one for the boy who will shoot it out as well. Like to get more when possible because one is none two is one and so on but in this case would be lucky to get any. Love me some MG as well but still get everything else I can get my gunpowdery hands on!
