It was bound to happen at some point....a bad range day.
We all know about the issues my 1911 9mm has been having off and on for a while.
Today I had major problems with my carry gun, the Sig p238. It's not dirty, but today it began with the failure to extract issues that have been plaguing the 9mm!!!! I'd shoot a round and then have to clear a case out, shoot another round, clear a case out. After 3 of these in a row, I got another magazine and had the same issue. Got a 3rd magazine, same thing. One of the magazines was only a few weeks old.
At this point I packed it in and left the range, not at all mellow like I usually am after shooting. Even on days that I don't shoot well, I'm still in that happy shooting bubble when I get done. Lol.
I plan to clean the .380 and all 4 magazines, then take it back to the range and give it a go. In the meantime, I'm out two carry guns. I can't trust my most reliable gun, and the 9mm is still acting up. Guess it's down to Billy's .45 or the revolver as my carry gun.....
Any insights will be appreciated. I'm a sad puppy right now.....
