Recently purchased a Steyr M9A1 new, have put around 200 rounds through it so far so I am not sure if this could be a break in issue.
What is happening is when I have an empty magazine in my M9 and have the slide locked back, if press the slide release it will only move forward slightly and will hear a "click". It will not close all the way.
If I then try and release the magazine the button feels very "hard" and will not drop or release. The only way I can release the magazine is by pushing the magazine button hard and pull on the magazine pretty hard.
I then hear a click like something has been "Cleared" and the slide will slam shut. I am not too sure what is happening or causing this so any help will be appreciated.
If need be I can take a video to better demonstrate what is happening.
Thanks
