So I am a new Taurus TCP owner. I have not been to the range yet.
My primary carry is XD9. This goes with me 90% of the time. My 442 goes with me on most other occasions that my XD9 is not convenient. I bought the TCP for those rare occasions that the above 2 are not prudent.
I have had the gun for about a week now. I have disassembled it, cleaned it, and applied CLP to the rails. This seems to have eased up the slide but it is still uncomfortable and unnatural to cycle such a small/narrow slide, especially with grooves only present at the rear of the slide.
Without shooting the gun yet... I anticipate cycling issues at the end of the magazine based on my experience loading the magazine and cycling the action. The magazine spring (not sure what the proper term for this is) seems very light. With the magazine loaded with 6 rounds and cycling the slide, the TCP seems to feed and extract the first 4 rounds without issue, but rounds 5 and 6 have difficulty feeding.
My novice experience tells me that the weak magazine spring fails to give enough feeding force during rounds 5 and 6 for reliable cycling.
Does anyone know how to replace this magazine spring... or even better... know of an aftermarket magazine replacement
