I recently purchased an SW40VE from the local Academy. I finally took it out for its first rounds today. The first few clips were great. Trigger is very heavy on this gun but I think I will get used to it.

The problem I am having, however, is that once I got to my 5th or 6th clip of ammo, the trigger started acting funny. Maybe 1 out of every 4 or 5 shots, I could not pull the trigger. It felt like it went from 10-12 pounds to like 50 pounds to pull it. I would release, pull again and it would fire like normal most of the time. Sometimes, I would pull and release several times before it would go back to normal. It almost feels like something is blocking the trigger from squeezing all of the way.

I fired about 150 rounds in it today, and I have a blister on my finger from this problem. I can rule out fatigue of my hand, because I had my buddy try it and it did the same thing. Does anyone know what the problem might be or where I can begin to explore? I have never taken the gun completely apart, only the slide. Thanks for any input!
