I suspect you were lucky! My 9mm Shield w/safety was test fired early June 2014 and has the impossible to rack slide. It is not hanging up anywhere; it's smooth but can only be racked by a herculean effort using full grip by the non shooting hand pushing against the shooting hand operating in the opposite direction with both hands held to the chest allowing maximum effort. It's only the RSA that is influencing the action, so am waiting for a new RSA to arrive.
