Another option is an AIP nozzle and rocket valve. I got one on eBay last year for under 20 bucks and it fixed a couple of issues...My 1911 being a CO2 pistol I was cracking the factory red nozzles as they were freezing up. The other issue was really poor 'mileage' out of a CO2 powerlet. The AIP fixed both of these issue. I get at least 50 percent or better out of the CO2 and I haven't cracked a nozzle since. Everything else I left bone stock. One thing I did do though was polish the hell out of the rails and other sliding parts to try and reduce friction as much as possible. That also seemed to make a big difference.
