My buddy bought one earlier this year and the fact that we couldn't get a loaded(or even a down loaded) magazine in the gun with the bolt closed was the kiss of death for me. I'll stick with my 930 SPX, which has never hiccuped even with light target loads.

Glad to hear about the trigger. The bolt locking back on an empty mag and swapping mags on a closed bolt are things that can/will be tweaked in the next few years.

I predict all the issues mentioned will be solved fairly soon.
