I am new to the forum. I have read with concern all of the submissions regarding the FTF, FTE, lube no lube etc.
I am happy to report that today I fired 90 rounds in my R9 without any malfunction. I fired all of the varieties my gun range had available, Speer Gold Dots 115, Federal Premium Hydra-shok 124, and Winchester 115 FMJ. I wanted to give my R9 every opportunity to stumble, and it did not!
