P08 Not returning to battery

Sprue · 09-09-2013, 10:53 AM

I have an issue where the slide/bolt hangs up, at about the half way mark when bolt is closing. (after the first round is fired). I can lightly touch it, with the least amount of pressure and the bolt DOES return to battery.

I know nothing about the pistols at all.

The last round hold open functions good.

Here's another analogy. After a single round is loaded and fired the bolt stays open as it should. When I drop the empty magazine and grab hold of the bolt to close it, It does release but it hangs up about half way down its travel. To get it to close, just a very slight touch, "very slight touch" the bolt/slide returns to normal.

I've only had this pistol for a couple of days, my knowledge is nil.

Thanks for any suggestions.
