Sorry in advance if I am posting this in the wrong section, I looked and this seemed to be the best one.
I recently got a Bersa Thunder .380, not yet fired. I noticed an issue while testing the gun, when I put a loaded magazine (safety off) into the gun then attempt to rack the slide back, the slide gets stuck in the back position while the slide stop has not caught the notch. All I need to do is tap the rear of the slide with my palm and the slide will move forward like it is suppose to. I noticed that if I try a different method of racking the slide, like I normally do but add a quick push, it fixes the situation but I feel as though I should not have to do the extra motion. Also if I rack the slide hard enough it seems to fix the slide from being stuck back but again, I feel as though it should not have to be racked so hard. Do I just need to get used to racking the slide harder with my bersa or is this issue more with the slide itself?
