Sounds like the slide isn't going into battery properly. Have you fitted anything to the accessory rail in front of the trigger guard? As this is a common problem because it apparently 'pinches' the slide and slows it to the point it can cause a battery problem.

Even if you haven't fitted something to the rail this can still be the problem. To check it; cycle the slide normally to load the first round but then hit the back of the slide with the palm of your hand (gun kept pointing in a safe direction obviously) and then pull the trigger. If it fires, repeat the process for every shot. If it goes off every time this is the problem.

Its a simple fix to slightly file out the inside of the frame to allow the slide to travel more freely.

Robbed from Youtube;



OF course if the gun is new, take it back to where you bought it and get them to fix it.
