Vector Jamming Issue

[tennesseetiger]

Buddy of mine has a .45 Vector that jams after about 20 rounds no matter what ammo he's using...he's tried different lubes including dry lube and no lube at all and it didn't make a difference. He's deep cleaned the gun multiple times which also didn't fix the problem. Tried different mags and again, no luck...sounds like the gas blow back system is the cause but neither one of us have found a remedy to this issue.

Mainly all of the jams are FTE's and stove pipes.

Anybody on here have one of these or familiar with this issue?

How old of a gun is it? The gen1's were problematic.

Pretty sure its a 1st Gen.

I'm not familiar with that firearm, but maybe a bad extractor?

After 20 rounds sounds like it may be the chamber getting dirty. If he cleans it after the jams occur does it work again for 20 rounds?

Yep thats basically it in a nut shell. It will fire 20 rounds out of the case after its been cleaned and jam...clean it, take it to the range, and shoot 20 rounds and jams again.
