I am using my P99 Titanium .40 for IPSC Production division. The gun itself works quite well. I put close to 2000 rounds through it at this point, no failures.
Reloads is what I dread with this gun. When you go through a stage, rarely there is a chance to reload with an open slide, in most cases it is done with a closed slide and a round in the chamber. I find it to be a real pain inserting mags with all 10 rounds in and slide closed. In fact, a plastic buttplate on a mag broke off last Saturday when I hit it with a palm of my left hand!!! And these are the original MecGar $40 mags!
The effort to insert and lock in a mag becomes bearable when you have 8 rounds or less in it. I never needed to apply that much power to insert mags into my Glock 17. What's the difference? Are the springs going to relax one day?
Should I store the mags full for a while?
What is your experience?
Cheers.
