Well, when I started to take the slide off, the two allen head screws holding on the top of the slide were loose.
I torqued them down, went outside and emptied a clip with no problems.
I loaded my other clip and it emptied without any problems.
Problem solved.
I guess that would be a first check when a clip wants to fall out.
I don't like the way those allen screws tighten..they go down and just stop, that doesn't feel just right..I'll have to check them on every outing.
Sorry about taking so long to reply, Saturday was 50 yard benchrest day!
