I took my Thunder 380 CC and relubed it yesterday. I just had the new wood grips made for it so I wanted to do a quick clean before taking it out to shoot this week. I got some Polycase 380 ammo with non-metallic casings just to try. I loaded some up and inserted the mag into the gun to see how these little polymer cased bullets mated with the feed ramp.
As I inserted the mag, the slide closed automatically! OK, so I'll test it out manually and see if they eject properly. NOPE! That sucker stuck! At this point, I don't know why the slide won't pull back but I have a gun with one in the chamber!!! The loaded chamber indicator is sticking out and I have no reason to believe the bullet didn't get pushed into the chamber properly. I'd guess it should shoot all right but I am a bit hesitant to play around with a polymer-cased bullet.
I'm gonna try and pull that baby again and see if I can't get it free. Also curious as to why the slide is stuck so tight! WISH ME LUCK.
