Paper clip takedown RIA 10mm
I just purchased a RIA 10mm 1911 that requires a paper clip to hold the compressed recoil spring back on the FLGR for takedown. I find this method to be a real PITA, and woud like to change whatever I need to allow conventional takedown. I considerd adding a Wilson two piece guide rod, but am pretty sure that would not fit due to the unusual spring cap design and bushingless bull barrel. My other thought is to loose the FLGR, and install a standard length guide rod. The paper clip method has already resulted in a couple of sproings, and I would rather come up with another takedown method. Suggestions?
