Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of firearm malfunction did Naaming Kotchanok experience?

Naaming Kotchanok experienced a dangerous malfunction where her Kimber 1911 .45 ACP fired automatically upon releasing the slide after a magazine change, without the trigger being pulled. This was identified as a 'slam fire' caused by a modified sear.

What is a 'quota' gun and why is it risky to buy?

A 'quota' gun, as described in the context, refers to a firearm purchased under someone else's name or quota, often with unclear history. Buying such guns without thorough inspection carries risks, as they may have undisclosed modifications or defects, like the faulty sear in Naaming's experience.

How can one prevent buying a defective firearm like the one Naaming purchased?

To prevent buying a defective firearm, always test the trigger pull and slide operation extensively at the shop before purchase. Seek professional inspection if you notice any inconsistencies or have concerns about the firearm's history or condition.

What is the function of a sear in a 1911 pistol?

The sear is a critical component in the 1911's trigger mechanism. It holds the hammer back, releasing it only when the trigger is pulled. If the sear is damaged or improperly filed, it can fail to hold the hammer, leading to malfunctions like the hammer following the slide.
