I recently purchased a new MC Operator, and I love it. However, I also had two annoyances.
I also had trouble reinstalling my slide stop, as the plunger must be depressed before three slide stop will seat.
One other thing I noticed was when operating the thumb safety, from weak side, it will hang up about 3/4 of the way and give false feedback indicating I have disengaged the safety. It requires either a much stronger depression than is required by the strong side, or it will bind. I was hoping it would smooth out, but has not over the last few weeks.
Otherwise, it has been great.

I know exactly what you're talking about with the false feedback. I noticed when disengaging the safety, if it is not done quickly, I get a little bit of a gritty feeling, I noticed my left thumb, when in the thumbs forwards position on the gun, sits higher than I would like on this gun, which sometimes interferes with disengaging the safety properly. I know the issue is because I've never had a gun with a larger thumb safety like this 1911, I'll be able to fix this issue with a little bit of muscle memory training.

I've got the same slide lock reinstall issue on my Range Officer - I think it's a 1911 thing

Took her to the range today, all I can say is wow! I shoot it more accurately than my G19 which I have tons of practice with. My friend I went shooting with, along with myself, agree that it feels less snappy compared to our polymer frame 9mm pistols. I honestly was not expecting the gun to have such little recoil. I love the groups I was producing. I'm really glad I got this gun, its for sure my favorite!

Welcome to the world of 1911s! 
The first time I shot one I was like "Whoa, I'm a pretty decent shot!"

The 230 grain Golden Sabers shoot great out of the Mc Operator.

Excellent choice for entering the realm of 1911.
