I did make the time to go today and check out the P3-AT they had in stock and after confirming it
was a SG model, purchased it immediately.
Since I was already at range, I decided to start the break-in by putting 50 rounds through it.
Purchased a box of their ammo and that's where I ran into a slight problem...
I guess from being used to my P-32 for years now, I wasn't exactly comfortable with the
the .380 model and out of a 50 round box, there were two extraction failures. I don't know
how you guys feel about the recoil from the .380, but I certainly noticed the difference.
That's where I'm wondering if it s the gun or the fact that I wasn't used to it and perhaps
a result of "limp wrist"? The two failures did happen only during the first and second
mag load. After that, I started holding it a bit more firmly and it functioned flawlessly.
Should I be worried? I only post this because as mentioned in a recent post here, the
P-32 I had that was stolen never jammed on me once. Anyways, I got home and took
out my cleaning kit and did clean it thoroughly. As always, I also took out my trusty
Dremel and polished the feed ramp a bit with some compound.
Your thoughts?
Also, I found its recoil that bothersome where it was actually a bit uncomfortable near
the end of the first box. With that said, I think I would like to get a grip for the gun
and wondering which is best? I'm not a fan of grips, but if it doesn't add too much
bulk and doesn't look that bad, I will consider purchasing one.
Thanks,
