S&W1911 recall notice.
There's a issue with the SW1911 pistol you should know about.
For more information;
http://safety.smith-wesson.com/pages/1911_recall
in an extremely small number of cases, that the firing pin safety plunger of the SW1911 pistol can become disabled, creating a situation where the slide may jam and render the firearm inoperable. This only pertains to certain Smith & Wesson Model SW1911 pistols bearing serial numbers JRD0000 to JRD4750.

You would think with all the time they had to "get it right"...they would have gotten it right.

RE: S&W1911 recall notice.
John Moses Browning had gotten it right 100 years ago.
"get it right"...
There was nothing to do but imitate the original to "get it right"
S&W is a great company but if it isn't broken don't... "fix it"[&o]
