      <content:encoded><![CDATA[I have to wear shooting gloves due to long term damage to my hands and wrists.  The 85% size grip on the Browning 1911&#039;s is just enough too narrow for me with the gloves on that I needed to find a way to make it larger.  I love the grips and didn&#039;t want to try to find fatter ones.  Also, after what I paid for the gun - with its factory grey cerakote and fiber optic sights - I didn&#039;t want to spend more money on it.<br />

The Black Label apeared to have a slightly longer trigger reach. So I decided to order one, and arrived yesterday. My suspicions were correct. The BL adds a little over 3/16&quot; (7/32 to be more exact) trigger reach over the A 1. Not alot, but I like it much better.]]></content:encoded>

However, if I use Snapcaps, does that protect whatever might break inside?  Note that I owned it for only a few weeks when the trigger went “clunk” and locked up. I just received it back from them, telling me it was “dry,” (though I cleaned and lubed on day one, and after shooting one box of ammo, and again after the second box, when it seized up...literally the day before I mailed it...<br />

On this last range trip I shot 70 rounds and each and every time the magazine was empty the slide did not lock back!  I was shooting CCI mini mags.  No problems with feeding or ejecting the rounds - just no slide lock back.<br />

I have the Black Label Medallion (Full Size) and it&#039;s got some back and forth slop between the slide and frame. Same for you all? This is the only .22lr pistol I own and the rest are all full size 1911 brothers which are a pretty darn pretty solid. But those are also a whole different beast in itself so I cant compare.<br />

This was a new placement gun from warranty since my initial one had some unusual slide stop notch...<br />
