Oh NO!!!, I just realized, I forgot to oil it before going out and after each box of ammo and didn't clean it last time it was out. Wait a minute, how could it possibly run??

And it doesn't even rattle.

I've never found the 1911 to be heavy, but that's probably because I didn't grow up with a plastic gun and I'm so used to it I don't notice.

^^^^ So true, even BB & pellet guns were metal back in the 80's and before!
