I bought a S&W EZ in 9mm for my wife to use backpacking. I took it out to test fire it today and it was malfunctioning on almost round. The problem was failure to go into battery.
I tried several different 115 grain factory loads. Nothing but jams. It did run better on my polymer coated 147 gr handloads.
I realize the selling point on these is the ease of cycling the slide. The recoil spring just seemed too weak to push the slide fully into battery.
Has anybody else run into this problem? Does anyone know of a stronger recoil spring for these?
Thanks
Scott
