Why the 1911 break in period is important

The 1911 break in period is an important part of making sure your pistol is reliable when you need it. There are some people who oppose carrying a 1911 pistol as their defensive firearm due to the need to break it in. While newer pistols that feature newer technology are very popular among conceal carriers, the 1911 pistol is still a great popular option for a self defense firearm.

Most 1911 manufacturers require a 500 round minimum before the firearm is considered functionally reliable. If a 1911 pistol is your choice for your concealed carry firearm, make sure it will function properly with your defensive ammo before you put it into your carry rotation. Learning that your gun isn't reliable while you're trying to protect yourself is a bad time.
