Re: Failure to feed

Well I tried the other mag and it jammed on the last round. I THINK, but I'm not positive, that the slide was hanging up on the extractor. I had to put the slide against a table and shove downwards to dislodge it and have it close again. I'm thinking I won't shoot it again until I've had time to do ...

Oh no offense taken. I've worked in customer service for about 6 years now, I know just how dumb people can be.

Re: Failure to feed

Well it's out of a box labelled 9mm Makarov so :P I actually fired a mag of the same rounds previously.

Re: Failure to feed

I can't move it easily and I'm slightly worried about trying to force it. I don't want to bend the lips.

Failure to feed

So I went to ping some steel and this happened. Any ideas on how to fix it? The round that's partially fed keeps the magazine from dropping so I can't do that.
