UpYoursPal Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Well fellas, looks like I'm going to join the Honcho owner association soon. I skipped the line and picked up @Shmella's blaster because it was just too good to pass up! Now I literally cannot wait until it arrives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpYoursPal Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Well, I got the Honcho in and got it sighted in today. It ran extraordinarily well and is super accurate. I did have one quick question: after firing, I took it apart for the first time to get used to the process, as well as understand the locking block system and put some lube on it. After re-assembly, the slide became very stiff. Like, it would stick at the very back when I tried to cycle it. I took it apart again, slathered on more lube, and put it back together. While it loosened up a bit, it was still pretty stiff. Any idea what could be causing this? Are there points that you would lube on a honcho that you wouldn't on a normal 2011?

PT put together a video on how to oil the Honcho, as it is a little different than a standard 1911/211, at least in their eyes.

RangerTrace Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 I'm not saying he is wrong, but that's easily 3 times the amount of oil I use. Pistol looked and sounded slick, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a matt Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 it’s one of those situations where the guy that actually builds the HONCHO offers info and the shooters do as we choose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
