Before posting this, I used my Google-Fu, but still ended up pretty confused.
From what I've read, I believe my SA 1911 is a Series 70, but can use a Series 80 extractor. Also, guns that are Series 80, CANNOT use Series 70 extractors. Correct?
The reason I ask, is because I'm planning on getting a Wilson Combat Bulletproof Extractor, and I'm not sure which series to get. If both series work, any reason I should choose one over the other?
Finally, I've read that Wilson Combat Bulletproof Extractors take some "modifications" to work in SA 1911's. Is this true? If so, is it a task I could handle, or would it be better left to a gunsmith?
Thanks!
John
