I have a Sig P226 Navy which I love. I've had it for a couple years. NEVER a malfunction with it. Only reliable and accurate performance from it

A friend of mine just bought the MK25 last week, and we headed to the range Sunday. He didn't clean it, and when he handed it to me and I worked the slide a few times before we ever shot it I could feel the sticky, gummy lube/protectant in it from back in April when it was built.
Sure enough, with the first 4 magazines it failed to lock back on the last round. It then finally began working ok but his groups were not very good.

And my wife shoots, carries, AND EVEN reloads her own .380.....gotta love it.
