    Just disassemble a 1911. There are so damn many parts in those things, you're likely to find something suitable to pry open and remove the jam. You're welcome.

    Here's a pic of the stovepipe jam. Classic.
    I think I'll try running it through the dishwasher to see if that helps.
    I know how to handle .45, so I know I wasn't limp-wristing it.
    What else ya got?

    Limp wristing, the lighter weight is what's causing it. That and as a woman you don't have big enough hands to handle the manly glock.

    If you had gone with a Walther or hk, you could have had interchangable lids to make it fit your hand better. Glock is getting really efficient in their designs, though. Looks like they're down to two parts. Perfection.
