I got a new FNP-9M yesterday, cleaned/oiled and took it to the range today. It jammed every 2-3 cartridges without fail for the first 30 rounds or so. If I used +P or +P+ there was no issue at all so it seemed to be related to insufficient recoil??? The cartridges were remington umc, the jam would either be a failure to discharge the casing or the casing lip would catch while being loaded into the barrel. After I fired another 20 rounds or so the jamming quit and I was able to put another 30 through it without any problems.
So my question is, is this be normal? The rangemaster said that it was just "new gun breakin". I guess I had very high expectations after feeding ~500 rounds through my full size FNP-9 without a single problem from day one. I'll keep shooting it and hopefully the problem is resolved, as i'm planning on using this 9m as a CCH.
