Is it just me or do SA firearms seem to need a lot of repairs?

Spending time reading about Springfield Armory Inc. firearms (1911s and M1As both) there seems to be quite a few folks having to send their firearms back to Springfield, some more than once to have them repaired or worked on so they work right. I’m not trying to bash Springfield, I’m sure other companies have a few problems too. Just seems like there’s a lot of guns going back.

Anyone else?

Bueller?

My two work and work well. A loaded model and WWII GI Stainless. They eat 200 grain SWC reloads like jelly beans and hit where they are pointed. I had a couple of Springfileds back in the 80's and they worked just fine too.

Maybe it is just you.
