This was a recent gift that came with no real info.

Primary issue: The slide locks to the rear every time retracted, even with no magazine in place.

I've searched online for this issue and it doesn't seem to be very common.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Second issue:  The right side original grip has about a .25x.25 chip out of itt.  The seller replaced with what's on there now. Sure would like to find a replacement right side grip, or a recommendation for more original looking replacements that won't break the bank.

Thank you in advance for any ideas!

@azcrew:  did you ever solve this!  To me it sounds as if the gun was reassembled from a full tear down incorrectly.

Hey, thanks for the response. No resolution yet, maybe I'll have to try a complete disassembly. 😬

Thank you for the idea!
