Just picked up my new 709,took it home and gave a good cleaning.
First couple mags it was flawless Then it failed to feed. New gun break in period?
After each failure I could manually rack the slide and it loaded just fine.*Then started to happen more frequently. After about 75 rounds it was almost every other shot sometimes 2-3 in a row.*I came in cleaned everything again went back out and a full mag flawless. Next mag it started again.*This is my first semi-auto. But been shooting rifles and shotguns majority of my life.
Also when I have the ftfeed issues when I do finish the mag the slide doesn't lock back. On the times I don't have a feeding issue it locks back when empty
*What could be causing it not to pick up the next round?
Thanks in advance
