Hi. I have a New off the UPS truck C9, and it seems to be "tight". I have shot about 200 rounds though it, and have been using Winchester plinkers.

Can you tell me it the gun will "loosen" in. That is, when loading the mag, the slide seems a bit "forced" when chambering the first round. My HP 4O S&W slides and chambers that first round just fine, smooth as silk...!

Thanks for your input!

I LOVE my HP!
40MM
9MM
Next: 380?

C9s like all HP pistols have a 300 to 500 round brake in period.
If the gun is still doing this after that I would suggest sending it back to HP to be looked at.
Have you tried buffing the feed ramp? That helps with feed problems.

Here is a list of who to call and where to send, depending on your gun.

Again, if it does not loosen up after the brake in period. HP will fix it free, and you will most likely get a free magazine with it when they send it back to make up for your shipping fees to send it to them.

^+1 KEEP SHOOTING! The more the better.

As others have suggested, keep shooting past that break in point and then it should be ok. If not send it back.
