Greetings Jim and folks -
I've had a few questions about my stainless Concept V in the past, and plenty of folks have helped. But this one needs a Baer rep. to respond to.
Since purchasing this pistol (about some 800+ rounds ago) I've been a little alarmed at its fittings. Specifically, the slide is WAY too easy to rack. Even when the pistol is in battery, it takes next to no strength to move the slide.
I realize that stainless steel can't be fitted quite as tightly as a blued gun can, for fear of possible galling. But, the gun just doesn't seem "right..." can't really put my finger on it. A buddy of mine also has a relatively new Concept V, and his lock-up is much more noticeable (ie, it takes more strength to rack the slide) than mine. Both are with the standard 3" grouping.
So, two questions: 1)Given the somewhat terse description, do you have any idea what could be up? And 2)Would Baer be willing to take a look at it and verify its accuracy, etc?
Thanks for any help you might be able to offer!
