Sig provides grease with their guns for this reason. I have seen many times that people having FTE's was user error and not the gun, soon as they stopped limp wristing it then the issues disappeared.
I break in all my 9mm with 124 gr ammo these days, puts a bit more of a workout on the recoil spring, plus it helps that I re-load so it is not problem making 500 rounds for this purpose...
I agree with you on both counts. I grease all of my sigs instead of just oil.
as far as FTE, I can hand my perfectly functioning P238 over to some one and watch them have an FTE every other round. its not as forgiving as some other goes when ti comes to limp wristing.
I was amazed that the improved flat recoil spring that Sig sent me for my P238 put an end to the occasional FTEs that my limp wristing obviously caused.
