I’ve fought FTF/FTE on this pistol since I’ve owned it.
Reading online it looks like it could be the loaded chamber indicator being the cause? Anyone else replaced it with the
volquartsen filler to fix this?

Intentional or not, you have summoned Stick…

Took mine out and the pistol works perfectly fine without it.

I took mine out also without problems. I have had problems with a tweaked ejector(not extractor), that was causing the bolt to be sluggish and producing FTEs.

I have one with the LCI installed, never had an issue.

I have a stainless MKIII Hunter with the LCI and have zero issues with it. I don't care for the looks of it, but it isn't giving me any trouble.

I took mine out, ground off the parts that contacted stuff inside, then put it back in.

I didn't give it a chance to cause problems.

Never had a problem with mine with any brand of ammo

The OEM LCI is indeed a feed/function compromise,on top of being fhuqking STUPID to boot. VQ do it,though I prefer TK and there's a goodly herd of same,running around in these parts. Hint.

'Tis a great time to circumvent the fhuqking STUPID mag safety too and I personally am a fan of Flatty Triggers. Hint.

A coupla TK's and a VQ fire control system here. Hint.

I literally trust my LIFE to mine and when sipping from OEM mags,it runs like a Singer Sewing Machine,with a broad spectrum of fodder. Mine is more often wet than dry and it could give a flying fhuqk less...though dust is "scary",in some circles. I've killed more schit than SmallPox with it and it's my ALL Time Favorite Bear Pistole. Few could begin to fhuqking fathom the magnitude. Hint.

CT has no equal and rates a thunk. The HollieSin's are just fhuqking SENSATIONAL. Hint.

Do it and NEVER fhuqking look back.............

How much clearance does the magazine have between the lips and the ejector? Need's aboue 1/16" to function properly. I've had to modify mags and 2 Rugers, and they've been trouble free since.

Getting rid of the LCI is a move in the right direction too.
