I can't post this on our local AZ gun BBS because I got this gun from a guy there and don't want him to think I'm accusing him of hiding an issue (yet). It's a very sweet loaded Springfield Champion. It was part of a trade and came with three Chip McCormick 8 round mags. I can't believe I didn't notice this while were doing the deal in a strip mall parking lot. But none of his or my mags make the slide stay open without my pushing up on the slide catch. I just put 100 rounds through her today and the slide usually, but not always, stayed open after the last round was gone. But it won't stay open with I rack it back with an empty mag. What the hell causes this? The slide catch is not worn or rounded off and it takes plenty of force to release it, so I'm sure that area is fine. Will try to post some photos later when I clean her up.
