Alright fellas, I have a Bond Arms Snakeslayer here. The pistol is chambered in .45LC/.410. The 9mm barrel was purchased for it, and as a result the weapon has suffered from primer light strikes. Has anyone had this issue? The .410/.45 fires everytime with out issue. when switched to the 9mm barrel, it light strikes everytime and only fires maybe once out of every five trigger pulls. Anyone ever had a similar issue?

Make sure that the pin is installed correctly. Once you've determined it is, make sure you're locked up good and tight. Then try some different ammo.

What 9mm were you shooting, or trying to shoot?
 
Try different ammo first.

If that doesn't help, send it in. The chamber could be head spaced too deep, or it could be a number of issues.
 
99% sure that if the 45 and 410 fire correctly the 9mm is chambered too deep (headspace issue).
Had the same problem with a Super Single Six. LR cylinder was 100% and the 22WMR was at best 1 out of six. I picked up a different cylinder on ebay and now it is fine.
(BTW, Ruger would have fixed it if I wanted to send it in but the cylinder I bought was less than the shipping).
 
Don't wait to contact Bond Arms. They're good folks and will make sure you're taken care of.
