[QUOTE="clemens, post: 595576, member: 26084"] LOUBOYD Thanks for the reply. I bought the DE from a pawn shop about a year ago. It is in real good shape, no dings dents everything seems to be in working order have only had chance to shoot gun few times. It does hang up when closing slowly. when you release slide it sometimes stops just shy of closing, it would fire 2-3 rounds then slide fails to close (closes about half way) or it will fire up to five or all 8. When it refuses to close it can be hard to open to remove cartridge. it has not stove piped any rounds. I figured it was cleaning problem since it was used. Have cleaning kit on the way, gonna give it one more try for the wife. have read the handloads wasn't recommended do to again reliable feeding, yet i figured that was due to warrenty issues. Is there a velocity of both factory or reloads that work best in the DE? Not sure what model number it is. looked at photo's on the web site but wasn't sure of identifying marks. :rolleyes: cartridge I was using was Fiocchi 240gr sjsp. [/QUOTE]
