Took my brand new Ruger Max 9 to the range today for the first time. I had three different FTFs in the first 50 rounds. I did buy it VERY lightly used, it looked as if it might have had one magazine through it, but I didn't clean it or lube it before I went to the range, dumb move on my part. I cleaned and inspected it tonight, feed ramp looked smooth, barrel/chamber looked normal. Tested hammer and ejector function, everything looks ok. Anyone else had FTF issues with their new Max 9?
When I manually cycled and ejected the rounds that failed to feed, they did have a tiny dent/crease in the side of the case. FWIW, these were gun show reloads. Going to try it again tomorrow with some factory fresh ammo.
