Taurus TCP problem
So my new taurus tcp has a minor issue. Idk if I should have the factory fix it or ignore it. When I rack the slide, if I don't do it hard the slide kinda "sticks" there. If i rack the slide fast or push the slide forward there is no issue. I tried oiling it up which didn't help. I may be crazy but I thought i saw a spark in the chamber from the friction of the shell when i racked in a round. Idk if this is a normal problem.

Re: Taurus TCP problem
You think you saw a spark when chambering a round? Check it again to see if you actually saw what you thought you saw.
I don't believe I have ever seen a SPARK when chambering a round in the five handguns I've owned thus far.
Did you clean it before you shot it?

You described a catastrophe, I hope you are wrong in what you think you saw. Strip it. Look for galling and or broken parts. Check all caming and sliding parts.

Re: Taurus TCP problem
I've had my TCP for about a year and know that the slide really needs to be snapped back hard to chamber a round. Either that or I lock the slide back, insert a full magazine and then release the slide lock and the round chambers well.
Never recall seeing a spark though!
