The factory magazine did not like JHP (in all fairness the manual clearly states that 230gr FMJ is the recommended ammunition). Function with the 230gr ball was without incident. I started out with Winchester 230gr FMJ using the factory magazine. I set up the range table about ten feet from the muzzle, applied a little CLP in the sweet spots, and got to it. First up was getting the velocities over my CED chronograph. The first morning out with the A-O was a day tailored made for a range trip.

The arched mainspring housing with correct lanyard loop. The thumb safety looked correct for an original 1911A1, and engaged and disengaged positively. The barrel bushing fit was snug but not so tight that a bushing wrench was needed to remove. The supplied magazine is a little different then what I am used to seeing but as for the rest of the pistol, other than the Series 80 firing pin safety and a different front strap it is not a bad reproduction According to Auto Ordnance the pistol’s frame is cast while the slide is barstock and the barrel is a one-piece item. It is close to the original pistols with a few changes made to revisit the design. This Kahr-built Auto-Ordnance 1911PKZSE is a revisiting of the old M1911 pistols from 1911-1923.
