[QUOTE="Hangfire, post: 3241021, member: 27673"] I was at the range early this morning with 100 rounds of factory loaded 230 gr. FMJ Remington and Federal ball ammo and was using the two magazines that came with the gun. The gun is accurate but I had a half a dozen incidents of both failure to completely feed the next round and secondly the slide not closing totally on a chambered live round and I would have to bump the rear of the slide with the palm of my hand to close the action. I called SA Customer Service at 9:15 a.m., they immediately emailed me a free Fedex shipping label and by 10:30 a.m. I had dropped the boxed gun and the two SA magazines off at Fedex......the fella I talked to said it would take 2-4 weeks for the gun to be returned and told me to ship the gun dirty if I hadn't already cleaned it (I hadn't) and I did. My first impression of SA Customer Service is a positive one, I told him that I was not opposed to running a few more hundred rounds through the gun to see if things smoothed out but he said that the gun should work properly right out of the box.....now we'll just have to wait and see if it is repaired correctly and returned promptly.
