New RFI Mark II(2023) giving jamming problem

Post by RamMani » Sun Sep 01, 2024 2:21 pm

After the Parliament Election& Registering process, Last week, I took my pistol for test firing with my experienced friends. Three shots were fired with IOF ammunition. Pistol functioned flawlessly for the two shoots, third shoot was given to me, I fired but unfortunately empty was partially ejected and jammed.
I was very saddened.

My friends suggested that it was due to lack of oiling, he showed his pistol for how much oiling to be maintained, his pistol is 2019 model modified with rib, purchased from a Kolkata shop. Mine is a factory piece, as it is a 2023 model and sold to me as new one.
While purchase time, shop owner fired a single shot only to ascertain pistol condition.

Somewhat I got depressed. Reluctant to pick it up again.
Now I think to revert back to SBBL as it is simple one and with me for the past 22 years ,never disappoint me.
Also not able to identify the Rifling grooves due blackened barrel. I suspect barrel altering.

Is there any remedy for it? Or please suggest good gunsmith to fix the jamming?
Is it possible to hand over other State Gunsmiths?’

Nothing to be saddened about. One of the reason could be limp wristing, second could be that it needs cleaning.

Avoid over oiling. Too much oil is not good.

Didn't like it, if there is an option to exchange it then go for Taurus PT57.
