[QUOTE="Garry J, post: 2544995, member: 71612"] I'm also a volunteer Firearms instructor at Missouri conservation department at Andy Dalton range close to Springfield. I get my share of time working on guns that malfunction while we're shooting. Luckily we have enough guns to just trade them out so we can work on them at a later time. Will have 50 kids out to shoot and after shooting on three ranges maybe only using one gun on each range and kid gets to shoot about 25 rounds. Some people think of bore snake down the barrel and the gun is clean. Those malfunctions are the need of better cleaning. Sometimes feeding problem in a handgun are man induced. Guy bought a Beretta over the other day and said that he was having feeding problems Within, a new gun. I hand-fed ammunition through it and it fed perfect so I took him to the range and we shot it a little bit the rounds were not pushing the slide all the way back to properly feed ammo. One question 2 him have you done anything to this like change Parts in it. His reply was yes I put a heavier springs in the slide I got some rounds with heavier bullet than 115 and they fed perfect. Told him to buy heavier rounds or put the original Springs back in it. Problem solved. My wife's Walter did not like 115 grain bullets when new. 200 rounds of heavier ammo and now it runs fine. I hope you get to do instructions with young people and get them interested in shooting [/QUOTE]
