Well, this just happened. I'll preference by stating that I didn't clean the gun before I took it to the range this morning. Oops, my bad.
I don't want to say, 'you get what you pay for', but this thing got me frustrated today.
First 16 rounds, one FTF. Not bad. Then SHTF. Next 16 rounds, every other round, FTF. No joke. At one point the slide kept getting stuck and I couldn't even rack to try and clear the gun. It took some banging to finally get it to clear. The last mag, 34 rounds later, a round got stuck in the throat? of the barrel...
Any advice or thoughts before I tear this thing apart and grab a pair of pliers???
The gun felt comfortable to grip. The ergonomics are decent. Very top heavy, so the barrel wanted to nosedive when I pulled up to shoot. The sights are red dot rear and a yellow dot front, odd but whatever. I don't like the safety much. It's tiny and can be difficult to access, I can see large hands or meaty paws having lots of trouble. And then racking the slide is like a tug of war, it needs to be pulled waay back and with muscle.
I'll end on a positive note. When it did fire the gun was accurate. There was very little recoil.

So I tried removing the round with pliers, then a flathead and finally decided I'll just remove the slide, not understanding the internals of this gun.
