So I bought a new Ruger LCP II a while back. I love the little gun, and am happy with it, except for a couple issues:
1. Fail to feed last round from factory 6 round magazine. Ejects the 5th round, then jams the 6th round, trapping it between the feed ramp and the slide coming forward. This happens every time I run a mag through it.
2. Magazine well obstruction....the magazine goes about 1/3 to 1/2 way into the well, then stops like it has hit a wall. If I slap it hard with the heel of my hand, it will slide in and lock. Or, pushing in the mag release button very lightly will also allow the magazine to slide in freely.
Anybody else experience these issues with their new LCP II? When I contacted Ruger, they said to disassemble the magazine and give the mag spring one quick stretch, as a possible fix for the 6th round FTF. I've done this, but haven't had it out to the range to test for effect yet.
On the other issue, when I look in the mag well, it appears the "far" side of the mag catch is not quite fully retracting, and hanging up the mag upon insertion. Weak spring, possibly?
