The 916 was so unreliable that S&W would send credit vouchers in exchange for guns. My dept had numerous issues as I recall and we hated them... I was issued a brand new one and when you pumped it, you never knew if you loaded a round or not and sometimes the carrier would stick upward and shells would fly out of the magazine onto the ground. We transferred all the credit vouchers to a police supply and got 870’s in return.
