·I recently shot my new stainless Loaded. Accuracy was nice and apart from a couple of failure of slide to close completely reliability is ok. I did notice some problems
1: Gun shoots 3 inches low. Anyone else have this problem?
2: the 'memory pad' on the grip safety sticks out a lot and plain hurts!!! Need to grind it off. Any one else prefer the oldstyle grip safety?
3.At the end of the session I noticed a burr on the feed ramp of the barrel. Cause of hangups? Most likely.
4. On stripping the gun One of the grip bushings came off the frame when I tried to remove the grips!!!
I examined the pistol and I believe mine is a retrofitted 2000 model. The front sight has a pin and lo and behold it's in a blind hole!!! Inside the slide there is no hole corresponding to where that pin should be. There goes changing the front sight myself.
I'm keeping the gun since it's accurate. I am slightly miffed that it shoots 3 inches low. At least the windage was dead center. I am most likely going to send the pistol to Kurt Wickmann or Novaks and have it dehorned, deburred and sighted in properly with a gold bead sight. Will post report when mods completed.
