I've fired maybe 500 rounds of WWB 165gr FMJ through my pistol with never a problem.....until Sat.
I had it happen 5 times on Sat....The slide would lock to the rear and leave a spent casing in the chamber half ejected.
I'd flick the casing out of the chamber with my finger nail (no force at all required) and let the slide go forward and fire sometimes a few rounds or sometimes 20 rounds before it would do it again......
This got me worried because this is my concealed carry weapon! I've never had a single problem before with maybe 700 rounds through the pistol.
So changed over to my regular carry ammo to see what would happen.....UMC 180gr JHP's
I fired 100 rounds of it.....and twice, the slide locked to the rear but the rounds ejected. I don't think that I could have touched the slide lock...I was making a concious effort not to. And even if I did hit the slide lock on accident...that wouldn't explain the unejected casing with the other ammo.
Anybody got any ideas?
