Springfield RO 9mm feeding issues


Recommended Posts

Posted

I've recently purchased a Springfield 1911 RO in 9mm and have tried 3 different brands of magazines and have issues with feeding on all three.  Any suggestions on what to look at for a fix?

Send it in to SA, they will have it gone through completely and get it back out to you quick. Just give their CS a call. They will send a shipping tag out for it right away.

When I had my 9mm RO, I used the Wilson ETM 10rd mags. Put over 1000rds through it in less than 2 months and never had a bobble out of it.

I've tried 4 types of ammo, hollow points are the ones with the most trouble.  when slide cycles next round, jams on feed ramp and slide. I will try calling Springfield.

 I know you told me you had polished the ramp but did you just use the polish and a dremel wheel? If you want that mirror finish get some automotive sandpaper in the higher grits and work your way up. I just used a pencil eraser to move it up and down in the direction the bullet would normally feed. I've had some that even though I got them nice and shiny it still needed the actual sandpaper treatment to really slick it up.

 

I think I have some left if you want to try it one day.

What 3 brands did you try?  See if someone will let you run some rounds out of a Dawson magazine. They are the go to mag for good function in the comp shooting circles.
