[QUOTE="druryj, post: 2831311, member: 10465"] Dang, sorry to hear yours started off life like that. I think they are a little sloppy at the factory when they spray the finish on/in these things and that overspray may make the rails and inner parts of the slide tight and "sticky" until that junk paint or whatever it is they use either wears off or is removed by hand. Check your barrel to see where its starting to wear too; a little light grease there may help. As best as I can remember, I broke my gun in with a bunch of CCI mini mags; and she didn't skip a beat. I also have the CW Accessories Performance Enhancement Kit in my gun; better guide rod and recoil spring and a few other small parts. My rails and slide are slick as can be now and the pistol is flawless. Use [I]light [/I]grease on the slide and rails., there just isn't enough recoil to let the gun run well if you have a heavy, thick grease on it maybe. Shoot the snot out of it; she will only get better...and I heartily recommend the P.E.K. from CW Accessories; it sure did tighten my groups up, plus it gets rid of that annoying screw that you have to put in on the side of the frame with a frame plug kit that comes with it.
