As a result the slide can't put the hammer into the cocked position and it just gets caught on the return stroke on the back side of the BBU. If I hand cock the hammer you can see that the slide is completely clear of the hammer with no contact. Now all my hammer are quite old and I haven't gotten a new one for a while and I am wondering if they have changed the tolerance or engagement of the sear to the hammer or something. I guess I can always go back to what I was using before, but I wonder if the new gun I build in the future will have the same issue....

So does that mean they're making defective hammers???
