sti38super Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I had the same problem with one of my Stock 2's. The breech face had a really sharp edge so put a 45 degree chamfer on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avenida Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 good thread! I found this thread very useful, I was having FTF too and turns out my slide is pushing my 2nd round forward causing a failure to extract (brass is hitting the next round under it because it is too far forward. Here is a quick tip for you guys looking at rounding the leading edge of the breech face, without damaging or accidentally sanding anything else: 1 Get a flat and thin (as thick as that edge) piece of wood, something like an ice cream wooden stick is perfect for this 2 Add some glue to the face of the stick (UHU stic is perfect and easy) 3 Cut a strip of sandpaper (nothing coarser than 600 grit) to fit the face of the stick 4 you just created a home made file Using wood comes in very handy because the edges are soft and will not mark the slide so you do not have to worry about accidentally sanding other parts of the slide. With this techinique, I polish the edge to a mirror finish using 600 grit first, then 800, then 1000 and finish with dremel and long buffing wheel. If I get around taking pics I will post one. Hope this little tip helps someone, cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemphisMechanic Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I used a metal file then finished up with a dremel. A small thin file with masking tape on the insides of the slide works more quickly than 600-grit would. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reaper1 Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 Yet another 6 stages I shoot recently and 1x Failure To Extract I really hope that was caused by the sand (new extraqctor, new extractor's spring). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
