M&P CORE Owners

[shooter7]

To you CORE owners,

I was at the range today shooting my CORE 9mm, 3rd time, but I got my new optics on it, so I was getting the optics zerod at 25 yards. Once I did, this thing was awesome, and fun I might say. But problems arose again with the gun. For the 3rd Time, the gun pulled a federal HP into the chamber, would not close all the way and got jammed. The trigger can not be pulled so it is in a safe position. But it is jammed tighter that d*@%'s hatband. Gunsmith could not get it undone this time. Called Smith and Wesson and told them of the problem, they sent me a shipping label and want the gun. But, they want the round out before hand, gunsmith doesn't know how to get it out in the position it is in. The slide spring shaft is sticking out the end about 1/3 inch and it is in the position for good. I am thinking that I just send it back as is so they can see it. Question is, has anybody else had any problems of this sort with their CORE's. Thanks,

PS This gun just might be for sale with optics and new hard sear and usb for apex I have on the way, when it is all said and done. Extremely aggrivated!!!!

Both sides of case'. Seems to be flared a little towards the primer end' uh?

Will the Federal HP be included in the sale?

That sucks.. Keep us updated.

Yes, that one cartridge that is stuck in it right now!!

Don't send it with a live round.

That's ****ing dangerous and stupid and after being the recipient of "surprise, it's loaded!" guns many times when people bring their broke **** in, I guarantee someone's gonna wanna deck you.

If your gunsmith can't get the slide to remove the round, he needs a bigger hammer :P

No one with an ATOM mount has reported this issue.

Ive heard a gunsmith talk about an issue of rounds being stuck in the chamber and sticking the gun in the freezer and after cooling being able to rack the slide to remove eject the round. I have never tried it myself and i am not a gunsmith. Plus my understanding is metal contracts when cooled so might have just been a story to see if someone would actually stick a gun in the freezer so he could get a good laugh

The idea is the thin brass will shrink at a faster rate than the stainless steel.

i see

Alternatively, a bigger hammer.

If neither works, try both freezing it and using a bigger hammer. Maybe a bigger, frozen, hammer.

But whatever you do, don't try heating up the barrel with a torch to counteract the frozen casing.

I would point it in a safe direction and throw rocks at it until something happens.

I will post some pics in the morning when I have some better light. Yall are all too funny.

Pop and Drop. Blow it in place it's the only way to be sure.

+1. Someone has to have a spare Incendiary Grenade hanging around.

or go native on it.

I had it happen to me on M&P full size. What grain bullets are they? The round is to long or its not crimped enough. If you push on the end of the extractor you can get it to release the case. Then take a rod and push the bullet out. If you want to sell the CORE let me know.

 

[shooter7]

Its a 124 grain. How can I hold the extractor down when I cant get to it. the slide opening is still closed technically. Im listening, all help is appreciated
