Took the brand new SR40c out to the range for the first time today. The shop lubed it up for me, shot pretty well. Only thing is it jammed up twice while i was shooting and a couple more times when I put the clip in and racked it to start shooting. People in other lanes said its because it's a new gun and its stiff. Just seeing if any of you have had this problem.
SR40c Jam

Hey, Jed
The shop "lubing it up" , is a concern. The SR40c needs very little lube. Just a few key points need just a drop of oil.
This is an excellent vid showing just where:

Give it a good thorough clean and oil it yourself.
Other than that, the people are right that you just need to fire it a while, break it in.

Mine was fussy at first too, but not bad...they break in after a few mags. No limp wristing!!!

Some others reported problems feeding the initial round. I believe the issue was not pulling the slide back all the way, and then not letting it use the full force of the springs to pull it forward.
