Things that make you go Hmmmm....

So it was beautiful 70 degree day and I took a 1/2 day vacation to go to the range. Got there and the place was empty. Had it all to myself.

Fired 250 rounds through through SP-01 and it was flawless. Up to 500 rounds now and one can rapid fire a whole magazine at 10 yards and all of them stay on a paper plate. Excellent. No recoil to mention at all.

Then I think let me run a box through the P-01 since I've been carrying it. Well about 25 rounds in I had a true stovepipe. Never had that happen before in my whole life. Gun extracted the fired casing, picked up the next round and fed it most of the way in but the empty didn't eject all the way. Sweeped out the fired casing with my hand and continued problem free as the next round was chambered. That was about round number 1575 for the P-01. Granted it was target ammo (actually seemed a little on the hot end of the spectrum) but I had never had that happen before. Now I'm thinking to myself I have to test it some more. Got to put the P30sk back into the carry rotation now.

That's one of them things would make me go Crap, not Hmmm, and then worry me to death next lotta times I went to the grocery store.

Thank you. I no longer feel alone because that's exactly how I really felt.

Who's to say the P30SK wouldn't malfunction? Anything made by man can fail.

Clearing the jam, and making good fast decisions are your best defense against this kind of thing.

Dust off the CW380. The old New York reload will soothe the nerves.

Its actually still working good. I'm happy with it so far.

Must be story time this occurred a couple of years ago. I don't generally shoot the days carry gun during a range trip but after a few hundred rounds of 45 that little voice kept telling me to fire the PM9. What the heck I'll fire a mag of sd rounds. Three rounds in and no trigger, no reset, nothing. Dropped the slide and low and behold a broken trigger bar. So I packed up, discussed it with the gunsmith an he said "I told you the rental Kahrs brake trigger bars."

Kind of lucky it broke when it did.

[AIRret]

I never heard about the trigger bar issue.
Did the gunsmith say what round count the failure was likely to occur?

Thanks for the information.

There is always a chance that you had a little limp wrist on that shot. You did say that you had fired 225 rds.

[Bawanna]

I've never heard of broken trigger bars either.

I thought about that and it could be the case. Good news was the round in the empty that stovepiped hit its target so maybe I wouldn't have needed that next round immediately.
