Does the SD9 VE have an issue with Auto Forwarding as does the M&P?
By that do you mean that the slide is released when the magazine is seated?
I don't know...mine doesn't. But I don't know that I'd consider it an "issue" if it did. As long as it fed correctly, I guess I'd think it was a good thing...saves a little time on reloads.
I've had it happen to an XD, Beretta, Bersa, M&P, etc. If it does have one I'll know soon when I pick mine up, but it wouldn't be the first nor last gun to do so.
Only happens on my SD40VE when I slam the magazine. Also when I'm shooting I practice not letting the chamber empty, saves time by not having to send the slide home.
