If I loaded the mag minus one of full capacity, it would snap back into battery every time.

Is this by design? Seems like a full magazine may be slowing down my slide?

Thanks
My slide will not go back into battery after I pull back slide about one inch and release unless magazine is removed or inserted completely empty. (Slide would move forward but stop about 1/4 inch from battery when released at about one inch with any number of shells in magazine.)

I have never had any issues with my Shield and there have been posts regarding the slide not going completely into battery when you pull slide back slightly and release.
