You'll make someone very happy. They'll have to send it to smith to get the magazine / barrel issue worked out though.

Thanks for the um... "informative" post.
Maybe you can tell us how it failed or what the actual problem is.
Was it a failure to feed?
Failure to eject?
Double feed?
What kind of ammo were you using?
Did you try it with more than one kind of ammo (both brand and fmj & jhp) ?
How were you holding it?
Did you limp wrist it?

Sell it and purchase something else.
Your handle says it all.

No real information here, just a bashing thread. We don't need a flame war here.
