Hello all, I just bought a new Ruger LCP, went to the range and fired about 125 rounds of ball ammo, loading only 5 in the mag at a time and experienced two stove pipes upon some rapid firing, which may or may not be related to the more annoying issue of the slide sticking open and not going to battery whenever it was pulled back and released to load the first round of a reinserted magazine. I actually had to give the slide a little tap or nudge with the palm of my other hand to get it started, and then it would close by itself and go into battery. It's important to note that this gun is designed to not leave the slide open after the last round of a mag is fired, necessitating the slide be pulled back and released after inserting a fresh mag. So when I did, the slide just hung up in the back position. This happened every time a reloaded mag was inserted. It seems to me that the slide ought to release and go into battery without having to coax it in any way, simply by pulling back on it and letting go. I hope I'm explaining this adequately. My plan is to clean the gun thoroughly and give it another shot at the range (pun intended), and if this still persists then return to ruger for service. I tend to think the outcome will be the same as I just finished cleaning it and it's still happening. I wonder why? Thanks for listening.
