Oh, well I didn't know, nor did the lady who picked up the phone care to inform me.

Grrrr.

Alright, I have called STI 4 times today, and still haven't gotten a human on the phone to discuss my warranty.....

I'm really starting to get

I am going to contact them directly this morning. I only got the news that the part wasn't going to resolve my issues and STI was on a 13 week backorder last night.

My shadow has not carried the same reliability, and it bums me out. I'm to the point to where I'd rather replace it with a factory new handgun, but STI is on a 13 week backorder for production.

For some reason, the main spring is not providing enough force to put the weapon in full battery, causing failure to feeds. It ejects perfectly fine, just not feed. Local gunsmith (whom I purchased it from) is handling the repair. We got the replacement part, but it's still having the same issue.

I love the gun, I want to carry it, but I cannot carry a weapon that will fail to feed every other round.

Granted this is a used gun, and I'm giving it more patience than I probably should, but my plastic is in the mail.
