I have a Colt made just before ww2 began, gets the occasional 3 point jam - anything obvious I should check on? Polished feed ramp, throated barrel chamber. Slide face, breech is slick. it's a fail to feed jam.
As far as known mags are good. ideas?

Marlin try a new recoil spring slide maybe moving to fast on rearward stroke.
