Hi all,
I've been having problems with my gun and I'm hoping people on this forum can give me insight as to the problem. I purchased a IWI Jericho 941 a few months ago. I really like the gun however I have had issues with FTE (Stovepiping).
I purchased the gun through Davidson's Gallery of Guns and I ended up with 7 or 8 FTE over roughly 800 rounds. Basically it was happening once every 100 rounds which to me is unacceptable. Fortunately, Gallery of Guns and their warranty is awesome and they sent me out a replacement. I get the replacement gun and on the third round I have a FTE. I ended up shooting another 100 rounds without a problem. At this point I was frustrated since I was on my second gun and had the same problem within three shots. I sent the gun to IWI and they put 96 rounds through the gun with multiple brands of ammo without a problem(according to IWI). On my next trip to the range I get a FTE on the 149th round. I am now sending it back to Davidsons and they are sending me out a second replacement. Did I say that Davidsons is awesome!
I don't believe I am limp wristing the gun as I also have a browning hi power, sig p226 tacops, cz 75 compact and I have not had one FTE with any of those guns. Also two other people shot my Jericho and had a FTE. The FTE's have come with Speer lawman, Blazer Brass and Remington 9mm ammo.
I'm thinking of changing out the magazines when I get the new replacement although not sure if that will make any difference. I have attached two pictures and any insight would be welcome!
Thanks
