Hate to let it go, it's a great shooter,,, when it shoots.

This is pretty much spot on to my 45 Shield. Two 6 rounders(one with a "new" style follower, one with an "old" style), three 7 rounders (all with "new"style followers). Would stop after second round out of the magazine. When the gun was new, it was very intermittent. It got progressively worse over time. Two handed hold minimized stoppages. Most FTF happened when shooting one handed. I'm thinking that it needs a really firm hold, and is susceptible to even the slightest "limp wristing". For a defensive handgun, being able to shoot one handed & with the weak hand is essential.
