[QUOTE="Traxxis, post: 1143947, member: 8980"] Don't mess with the feed ramp... it's a new pistol, if something is out of spec on it, I'd demand an exchange. Also, unless the feed ramp is REALLY rough, it's not likely to be it. The bullet doesn't actually "slide" up the ramp and into the chamber, it really only bounces up it once, maybe twice, then into the chamber. Being that it's a new gun, did you take it apart, clean it, oil it, then reassemble? Do the RIA's have a tapered chamber? You don't happen to have an extra recoil spring do you? If so, swap it out and see what that does. You might try the "Good Dr." if none of that works. [/QUOTE]
