Today I went to the range. Im still fairly new to guns and only fired maybe 500 rounds total. Today I encountered my first failure. Failure to extract. After about 5 rounds I pulled the trigger and nothing. Slide was locked back and I tthought thought to myself, that wasn't an entire mag. I look, one casing jammed in the barrel another in the mag feeding into the casing.
This leads me to my lesson. I realized I didnt really know what to do. I know I needed to rack the slide but it wouldnt rack or eject. Then I realized I needed to drop the mag and rack. Guess I need to brush up on failures and how to deal with them incase one happens in the event I need my firearm
