ok, so i have a mark VII .41 desert eagle. I got it a little bit ago. so heres the story. when i got the gun i tore it down and found the gas plunger was dirty, so i figured she was dirty all around. I FIELD stripped it quick ran a boar swam, lubed it and went shooting. it failed to cycle everytime.
--next, i took her home after that, FEILD STRIPPED again and cleaned, cleaned, and cleaned. trying to get as mush as i could...only to the same effect. not ejecting the shell, slide not pushing back from lack of pressure.
so now someone told me that i might just have weak rounds and to try some different rounds because .41's can be picky. so i cleaned AGAIN (keep in mind i only shoot about 8 rnds at a time between these cleanings) and went and bought a box of: remington exspress, federal hydo-shock, winchester platnum tip(240grain thought the added pressure would help), and PMC. ALL OF THEM FAILED TO EVEN OPEN THE SLIDE..
so at this point I tore the whole gun down, took out every chuck besides the trigger assembly. cleaned again, and with the remington still nothing....
so RIGHT NOW the gun is torn down(again) and its been soaking for the last 10hrs and will be till tomarrow in hopps 9 solvent. then which it'll be hosed down good with my shops 130PSI air system. but if this dont work...what the hell do i do?
sorry this was so long.lol
