Picked up a PF-9 at a gun show last weekend for pocket carry. Field stripped it and cleaned it immediately. Noticed it was dirty inside and looked cheaply made. No big deal, long as the thing works right? I don't expect a kel-tec to be a les baer.
Took it to the range the first time earlier this week. Went about 30 rounds without issues, then had about 5 jams after. Some were failures to eject, some were failures to extract. I figured, well, hey, it just needs to break in.
Without cleaning it from the last trip (i figured 50 rounds, what the heck), I took it again today. It functioned flawlessly for 100 rounds. I was feeling better about it. Then around round 120 or so, it started having failures to extract with every round. After about 5 in a row, I just gave up.
I figure I'll clean it good tonight, then try it out again tomorrow. Maybe it was too gunked up inside, as I know little gun tend to get dirty as hell quickly. If it has any more issues, I'm thinking it should go back to kel-tec.
Anyone have a similar experience? Never had a failure to extract before.
