I put another 350 rounds through my P99 .40 on Sunday morning. No problems at all still. The P99 fired with no problems at all. What a great gun.

I got my Mepro Nite Sites put on today with help from Dr. Lunde. I'm excited to get out and try them.

Scott, I am glad to be of help. If I didn't have other plans, I would have joined you and Brian for lunch.

Ken,

Thanks again for the help. I can't wait to see those things in the dark.

As for lunch. There'll be other times. As it is we got hosed, the cafeteria closed at 1:30 and we got there at exactly that time. Oh well, next time.

I love my 40. P99 too!

Now you guys have went and done it. I'm off tomorrow and have the urge to go shoot mine. I guess I'll have to stop at Wally world on the way home for some 100rd packs.

It's a tough job, but somebody's gotta do it

I got 3,000 rounds of .40 from Georgia Arms this week. I'm itching to go out and try them.

Okay, took my P99 .40 for it's first spin today. While I was wildly impressed with it's accuracy - easily comparable to my 9's, I did suffer the dreaded "slide locked back with rounds still in the magazine" failure about 4 times out of about 60 rounds.

So what do I look for, or ask Walther to do about it? Is it the magazines (all have the orange followers)? Is it the slide stop spring?

Or just normal break-in?

Advice please?

Never have my 9's done that.

I'm not sure if it's the mags or not, but I've got 4 mags for my .40 and all of them have the blue followers. I have never had the problem you are speaking of.

It is the mags! Send them back to Smith and Walther and they will send you new ones. You need the ones with the blue follower. It is totally redesigned so the bullets coming up dont touch the slide stop lever.
