Fusion longslide 9mm . I went right to the range, oiled her up and put 100 rds through it to get used to the trigger. Recoil was nill, but the first round did not eject the spent brass. There were about 7 more failures of the brass to fully extract. I noticed there was a lighter spring that came from the factory in the bag so I installed it and had 100% function after that. That heavy slide along with the heavy spring were retarding the slide and causing the issues.
The target is 100 rds at 7-10 yds.

"But, as luck would have it, he stood up. He caught that chunk of lead." Gunnery Sergeant Carlos Hathcock "If there's one thing this last week has taught me, it's better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it." Clarence Worley
I haven't heard of that brand, not that it means anything. How is the quality of the gun? I thought it was a Dan Wesson at first. I love the look of the long slides.

The ex-president of Dan Wesson is the president of Fusion, so you are dead on. They have been around for years.

That was a very good deal. However there is one small problem. I only counted 32 hits on that target. This means that you have way too many bullets going thru the same holes. What you need to do is spread your shots around a bit so that you get 100 nice fresh hits. I know it won't be easy with a pistol that accurate but maybe closing your eyes would help
I've stopped counting.

The alignment of the extractor to the rear of the slide, to the rear of the frame rails is very good. What kind of feed ramp? Do they go traditional or do they use a ramped barrel?
I almost went with them when picking a 1911 recently. Opted for the tisas commander stainless. But yes that is sweet. You always come up with interesting firearms at JAX.
