Security 9 compact

[Rubsec9]

Anyone else experience a slide not closing. Slide release sits above polymer body. Just received a return package from Ruger. My full size Security 9 runs flawless I'll look forward to shooting the compact soon, I hope. From Port Charlotte FL

Check how you are gripping the pistol when you shoot. You could be hitting the slide lock lever and pushing it up when shooting.

Take down, check for large burrs, and reassemble correctly. Have a friend/range guy try it. See if the hammer is set back right.
