New PM45 - FTF - is it the mags or ???

[taxifolia]

Fired 203 rounds, two sessions - 7 times FTF - only the second round off the mag - partially chambered, but hung up at about 45 degree angle.

I number my mags - have 4. First session, two handed shooting - 103 rounds of REM 230 FMJ, only had mags 1 and 2 then - had 4 FTF, 2 with mag #2, not sure of other two.

Today, one handed shooting (I like recoil) - 100 rounds - cycled all 4 mags - first 50 rounds of REM - no problems. Second 50 rounds of WIN 230 FMJ - had 3 FTF - 2 with mag #2, 1 with mag #1 - these were in last 4 or 5 mag loadings out of 20 total - maybe I was tiring and not gripping well enough.

Friend also has new PM45 - he fired 200 rounds and had same second round FTF, but only once in his first 100 rounds.

I've had my 4 mags loaded at rest for 2-3 weeks as suggested by another friend. Today says maybe that did not help. I don't think it is ammo (both REM and WIN).

Wondering if it is the mags, my grip, need to polish feed ramp, or ???

Thanks, tax

Mine did sort of the same thing. I took the mags. apart and cleaned them , took some 600 grit sand paper around the edges of the follower (lightly). Polished the heck out of the feed ramp. Then I worked on my grip. Something worked cause it runs pretty slick now. As Jocko might say "eleminate the possibles". Hope this helps.
