My P32 would seem sluggish after cleaning and a light lube. I started doing a heavier lube after cleaning and that cleared it right up. I carefully wipe of any excess after I check the function and then check again.jhlewis10 said:I used a few drops of the supplied synthetic oil.
WOW... that many rounds with out a cleaning may be a record!jhlewis10 said:After 500 rounds of flawless running, I finally broke down my p3at and cleaned and lubed it.
When loading it up with my CCW load, Speer Gold Dots they will hardly chamber a round.
Any ideas whats going on?
From what most on this board report, including myself, that will never work. I am actually still trying to wrap my head around 500 rounds in a new gun that was not stripped down and lubed to begin with.jhlewis10 said:I used a few drops of the supplied synthetic oil.
Do you mean it will not chamber rounds in actual firing practice or when you hand cycle it? If the later it will prolly do fine in real shooting. If not, use a G.I. toothbrush or one of your old regular toothbrushes (never your wife's new toothbrush) and make sure the slide and frame rails are 100% clean and re lube, preferably with a light coating of grease. Grease the hammer slide too.jhlewis10 said:After 500 rounds of flawless running, I finally broke down my p3at and cleaned and lubed it.

IIRC that fix was for the P32.............regrip said:Some where in one of the posts I remember seeing a possible fix for that. It involved taking apart a magazine and being able to bend a 1/16 thick wire into a loop on one end and leaving the other end straight, also at the loop end about 1/2" or so above the loop bend the wire into a L. The L and the loop goes into the bottom of the mag. the top follower must have a cut in the back center and the wire must protrude above that. when the bullets are loaded the base will be against the wire in the mag. This fix was for hollow points only, it set the nose of the HP more forward which made it load better. It sounded like a really easy fix. I know this was not explained very well but I am sure I read that fix in this blog. Anyway, maybe someone else will remember where it is. Good Luck. Tom.![]()
