Went out today to the range to qualify. One of the Pistols I shot was a Bodyguard .380. I've had this pistol shortly after they came out and, except for the Laser, it has been trouble free. Today, however, I had a problem:
After about 20-25 rounds, the slide locked back while still having ammo in the magazine. Hit the slide release, nada. Dropped the magazine, hit the slide release, reinserted the magazine and racked the slide. All ws well and shot the string. No problems. But wait, After 6 or 7 rounds, same thing. Slide wouldn't close using the slide release; dropped the mag, closed the slide, reinserted the mad, Racked and finished up that string. No more problems and finished up the rest of the box without further any further problems except losing my concentration. Still got perfect 500 score.
Question: What happened or why?
I'm thinking a bad mag; I shoot this lil pistol 4-5 times a year, between 50-100 rds each time. Any advice or comments good, bad, or ostherwise would be appreciated.
