I had decided after my last post to see just how far I could push this pistol without cleaning or oiling it, only wiping it off after each range session. I also added a cheap ebay red dot on the slide, just as another experiment. At the start of this range session we were at 1700 trouble free, 100% reliable rounds. I brought 100 rds. each of the Bitterroot, PMC and Armscor ammos pictured at the start of this thread. Starting with the Bitterroot, with only a few rounds left in the mag I had a failure to feed. The round entered the chamber about halfway and stopped. I reached for the slide to clear it and as soon as I touched it, it snapped forward. I finished the mag but had three more occasions over the 100 rds. of the Bitterroot.  The 100 PMC and 100 Armscor rounds fired afterwards all functioned flawlessly, even as nasty as the Armscor ammo was. I'm going to chalk up the failure to feeds to the Bitterroot ammo because it is the only failures in this first 2K rounds. We'll see if we can make it to 2.5K.On a side note, the little cheapie ebay red dot has worked like a champ over the last few months and 1K rounds. For a shake awake red dot for $39, I'm pretty impressed so far.</blockquote>
