i happen to own several 1911, all are either A1's or a configuration type such as the 1991A1, and have some colt defenders
one interesting note the two GI 1911A1's all have one thing in common working the action and the spring is like a hot knife thru butter, the other ones including one stainless one from Springfield armory, well lets say it takes a man and two boys to work the action, or chamber a round and cock.
so guess my question is is there a set tension for springs, my two GI are smooth and not hard to work, my wife can even work them they both fire fine and eject and chamber with no problem.
springs??
