2nd Preliminary Report on the Tisas .45 Commander.

Having some spare time available, I decided to drill down on the pistol’s feeding problem.

I think I’ve got it fixed.

I first tried relieving the notch that engages the cartridge rim, but even after that, the pistol still didn’t want to reliably feed, so I dived into my spare parts and compared the factory extractor to a mil issue one.

As you can see in the picture:

The end of the factory extractor on the right is noticeably thicker in diameter, so I swapped in the issue one and voilà, the feeding problem is no more.

AK and I are going to burn some gunpowder this weekend, so we’ll confirm that the reliability problem has been solved, and go from there for possible sight adjustment for the ammo the pistol likes best.
