I'm seeing some failures to fully go into battery with Blazer 9mm Makarov. Has anyone else seen this problem on the range?

Yes, the pistol was dirty. I've since given it a good scrubbing.

I have never shot Blazer ammo in any of my 9x18's....with that said....a dirty gun all bets are off.

First two boxes of ammo I shot through my P-64 were Blazers. No issues whatsoever, except for having to pick up the spent casings 30 feet away. (But that's the gun's fault, not the ammo's.)

Give it one more chance with a clean gun.

Please allow this without me sounding like a internet smart alec......

A blowback gun requires a lil more attention in the clean department IMHO.
Also these lil pistols are not range guns. Not designed for bookoo rounds being fired in sequence.

I'm going to try it with a cleaner firearm. I don't mind being taken to task if it does me some good.
