Proper Grip and Jams

Just a tip for those of you who are about to throw your guns away because they jam. I just got a Colt Mustang 380 and took it to the range to test it out. I didn't really know what to expect; I got a jam at the end of the first mag full, tried it again, same thing. Gun didn't look dirty or too lubed up. On the third try I got a jam and noticed the mag was sticking out. My grip or my paws were pushing down on the mag release just enough to let it come down to not feed properly. The bottom of my hand was keeping it from dropping out. I adjusted my grip and shot the rest of the box with no hicc'ups.

Before you give up on a gun, consider everything, including the not so obvious.
