New S&W owner from Dallas, TX

[minimalheight]

Picked up an old SW40V from a friend. I hear both bad and good things about this gun. Friend said it had an ejection problem but I figured I would take it apart and give it a good cleaning and see if that was the problem, after just looking at it I already knew it probably was. Used some old gun oil to clean it up since I think every mechanical thing requires oil Well took it to Elm Fork last weekend and shot 65 rounds flawlessly. I'm defiantly happy shooting a gun that is 16 years old and so far seems it's always gonna work as long as I take better care of it than the previous owner! Just got a new grip in the mail today, feels prefect now...
