Yes, I had it apart before shooting it. And here's what happened next....

I loaded up with Russian 9mm ammo and charged the gun. Fine so far. But when I dropped the safety and pulled the trigger --- nothing.

No click. No nothing. I didn't pull too hard for fear of breaking something.

I cleared the chamber and dry-fired it.

It clicked -- firing pin dropped.

So I loaded back up and the same thing happened again -- no click -- no nothing.

I unloaded again and dry-fired it -- clicked again.

On my third firing attempt the gun fired and kept on firing thru 40 rounds of ammo with 100 percent functioning (Russkie ammo sehr gut!)

So what gives? I didn't take the gun apart to fix it. Rather it fixed itself after I dry fired it a couple of times.

I'm guessing the problem is the side-plate sear-bar thingie.....
