Why are people always blaming ammo when someone is having problems with a pistol. If you have a gun, it should work with all kinds of ammo.

The only firearm I have ever kept that didn't like all ammo was because it had historic value.

I would never own or carry a firearm that can only shoot certain brands or weight of ammo unless it has some history behind it
 
I've never had a problem with any ammo. I've tried a bunch of different ammo in my pistols and never a single issue. From the cheapest to fmj to jhp and never had a single issue

A lot of semi-auto's just need a little break in , 50 to 200 rounds to get everything working smoothly.....it's common , don't get upset about it.
Keep it clean and lubricated ...everything will be fine.

Glad you got the problem solved and welcome to the forum.

Not sure if everyone is blaming anmo but sometimes it is the culprit cheap crappy ammo. I'm not sure who your implying this too but. I was just simply asking what kind it was factory reloads re manufactured and what he done to solve it. So yes ammo does play a big factor in the gun going bang. I am glad the man is liking his gun now and enjoying shooting just like the rest of us do. I am thankful for when I have problems there is a lot of great people on here thank you. Have a good day!
 
Did anybody read all the words?

He loves the gun! There are no problems to solve, like limp wristing, wrong ammo, didn't clean it.

Please, please, please Steved13 is right! -- The OP loves the gun, we don't know what gun he has (might be any M&P 9 mm), it is not a Bodyguard 380, therefore it is not really very small, but regardless HE HAS NO PROBLEMS (except his typing and thread title) :eek:
 
First, welcome to the forum and glad you got the problem ironed out. Some of them just take a little more breaking in than others. My M&P gave me a couple of problems at first but after about 200 rounds it has been flawless.

I meant in general, every single hole thread I see here or anywhere else where people have problems with their guns, there's always a bunch of replies about check the ammo they're using. In a sense it was meant to you but also to everyone else in general

Welcome to the forum, I feel a compelling need to apologize for the way we welcomed you to the board. I can only say that the snarky comments you were greeted with do not represent the forum as a whole.
I am glad you were able to correct the stove piping with you pistol by working the slide.
You may not realize that typing in all caps is considered to be yelling or shouting to many, I do understand that it is easier to see and in some ways an easier way to type as my Father loved to type that way.
You got yourself a good gun, please enjoy it for many years to come.
 
Welcome to the forum. Almost ANY semi-auto will give problems out of the box especially if loaded and shot without a good cleaning - experienced it myself with a few! Heck even my brand new Henry .357 Big Boy was a little rough right out of the box - and with nothing more than a shot of Rem Oil which probably did more harm than good.
 
First time used American Eagle 115 grain. Second time used 115 grain and 147 grain American eagle.
 
Welcome to the forum.
I also would like to apologize for some of the receptions you have gotten.

There is a long standing, respected member here who, having given up an eye for his country, uses cap locks. It helps him see better as he's typing.

Type in #6 font size if you wish. We still get your meaning.
 
Actually I was just plain tired and lazy that night. I am sure everyone meant well. A lot easier than the first week in the U.S.M.C. in 57
