    long slide

    It may sound funny but I like the slide to go back slower but that is just me I also have a 38 special long slide it is a fun gun too with 3.3 gr. Bull 148 gr. wad. In the past I worked on a 32 WC for a 1911 and I did get it to work just fine. Well I can go on and on about the good old days have fun
