New 1911 Specialist 9mm. When fired, the slide will cycle and load the next round but the hammer falls with the slide. When unloaded, trigger held, the hammer will not lock back. Doing full function test, pushing the barrel and slide out of battery, the hammer will fall when the trigger is pulled. I've removed and reinstalled the sear spring which appears to be correctly positioned. Any ideas other than a warranty request?

Nope.

Bad sear contact. Do not load gun, it is unsafe. Send it back for correction.
