I had a problem with my new 911.
I emailed Springfield's Warranty folk and they promptly emailed me back. I did not get all the i's dotted or the T's crossed, even though they only asked for six short lines of info. I thought I had it all in to them correctly on the 13th, they did attempt to email me a RMA on the 14th but for whatever reason I did not get it, so today I called talked with a nice lady and had the RMA in a few minutes.
I will send it tomorrow and include the following information
To Who or Whom it may concern:
I bought my 911 on 04/19/19, it is serial # is xxxxxxxx, I picked it up from the FFL, close to the end of the month.
I did field strip it, cleaned and then re-lubed it.. I shot it on Tuesday May 7, 2019. I fired 72 rounds I used one magazine of PMC 95 Grain FMJ. One magazine of Underwood 90 grain XTP JHP, 24 rounds of Winchester 95 Grain FMJ and 34 rounds of new LAX 102 Grain FMJ.. Every round chambered, fired and was ejected. The gun was accurate. I used the six and seven round Springfield magazines and I successfully tried a Colt Mustang magazine also.
The problem was on firing, each and every round, the slide locked back. On a good note the slide lock release worked well to release the slide. Press the release and the slide stripped and chambered the next round and the gun was then ready to fire again. I would like it better if it worked automatically as advertised.
I tried all the Springfield magazines in my Colt Mustang too, and they repeated automatically, like they should.
I did include the flush fit Springfield magazine.
I will include my contact info too.
The magazines are a little different from my Colt's but they work interchangeably, bet Sig 238's magazines would work too.
I love the 911, except for the problem. It will get better.
Anyway I will post more so the whole RMA is dealt with.
