Yesterday I had a problem I haven't had before with my Springfield Champion. On the last round out of 3 of 4 magazines I shot, the casing would fail to eject and feed part way back into the magazine. That would make the magazine impossible to eject, so I had to pry the last shell out with a tool.
I was using two mags, the originals that came with the pistol. First two were new MFS Hungarian ammunition, and I had the first failure on the second mag. The second loadings were Miwall factory reloads, and both failed on the last round. I have had a few random FTE/Fs in the past. I usually clean the gun religiously every time I shoot. However, I had not cleaned the pistol the last time I shot, which was about two weeks prior, and less than 50 rounds.
Any ideas? This is my main home defense gun.
