Bodyguard 2.0 issue
Hi everyone, I apologize for the long post but I’m trying to get some insight here. My girlfriend recently bought a bodyguard 2.0 for her first carry gun and it has been nothing but a headache. It has what seems to be a common issue of it not returning to battery. The day she bought the gun we went to the range and it had at least 3-4 failure to fire’s out of 50 rounds. (I know this isn’t a lot of rounds it was ridiculously hot out and neither of us wanted to be outside for a long time) When we got home I cleaned and oiled the gun and it is still having issues. I can get it to repeatedly get stuck out of battery with or without a magazine (loaded and unloaded) by barely manipulating the slide. The only time it doesn’t get hung up is before the reset after pulling the trigger. Also she opted for a belly band type holster because she wears a lot of athletic type clothes and whenever she sits down and the thing ends up out of battery again. I’m trying to figure out if it’s worth sending more rounds through it to try and break it in or just go back to the store she bought it from and see what they can do to get her something that will actually function when she needs it to. For reference she was in the army for several years and grew up around guns so it definitely isn’t user error. Any input would be greatly appreciated, she’s very disappointed with the gun so far.
