Had a couple magazines that were giving me occasional issues. Took all my magazines apart to figure out what was different that was causing the issues. Hand cycling surprising was very quick to identify potentially problematic magazines. A couple of them would nose dive around 5 rounds as the...

So I purchased my MCX Virtus off of Gunbroker a couple of months ago. After changing the trigger, mag release and installing the LPVO, I finally got the time to get to the range today and on the first shot, I had a FTE. I was running the gas system on (-) so I swapped it to the (+) and fired the...

I’ll make it short and sweet just looking for some advice on what too do going forward I went to the range yesterday with a brand new sig p320 x compact, only thing I did was pull it out and clean it (getting off all the cosmeline) off of it and added lube on the slide rails. Anyways out of 100...

I just purchased a new P239 TAC 9mm and none of the ammo I normally use in my other 9mms will load. Round jams on the lower ramp and will not go into the chamber. This includes three different hollow points and even my round-nose target rounds. Anyone else have this problem and how do I overcome...

Whats up guys. I just got my first sig last week (new 220 combat) and took another firearms training course with a private instructor, and brought it to break it in. At about 30 rounds I started to get Failure to feed malfunctions, 3 total in the first 100 rounds. Seems like a mag problem where...

I think I already know the answer, but looking for confirmation from the group. I bought a pristine P229 (short extractor) off the consignment wall at my LGS. This pistol was CLEAN. After 150 rds of .40 and then about 40 rds .357 sig (barrel change) I had some failure to return to battery on the...

Hello everyone, I found out today that there is a serious compatibility issue between the Sig p239 and Hornady Critical Defense 115g 9mm ftx ammo. For anyone unfamiliar these are the bullets that have the red rubber plug in the hollow point. This ammo consistently causes a real nasty type 1...

Apologies if this has been covered in other threads, I searched and found similar topics but nothing exactly what I am experiencing. That being said, I am new to the forum so may have missed it. So I will get right to it- I have owned a few handguns over the years, but am a new Sig owner. My...

I took my used P232 to the range today for the first time. I loaded each of the two magazines with 7 rounds of American Eagle 380. I loaded the magazine and racked the first round into the chamber. No problems. However, after firing the first round, the 2nd round failed to feed. It got...

I purchased a P290 (not the RS, didn't know the difference beforehand) on Monday. I took it to the range Tuesday and put 50 rounds through it. The gun fired great. Very accurate, no misfires, no stovepipes. The problem I'm having is loading that first round into the chamber. Often the cartridge...
