I had some issues with my DB .380 on my first session at the range. Help please!

On Thanksgiving I went out and had my first range session with my new DB .380. I was shooting aa RWS 95gr .380 ACP cartridge. I put 6 rounds thru the gun and has some serious issues. I had two stove pipe and three where the casing didn't even eject. I thought maybe it was a break in period. I continued to put several rounds thru and continued to have the same issues, the slide actually separated from the receiver. This made me really nervous and I packed the gun away til I could find more answers. I have the ZB model. I thought maybe it was a cheap cartridge. My grip was nice and tight on the grip. Just not sure what to do. Sell it? Try a different cartridge? Send it vack to the manufacturer? Help please.

I owned a DB380 and had some issues as well. I would suggest checking for a missing trigger spring. Customer service was excellent when I called and promptly emailed a return label. I was back on the range with my DB380 in 4 days. I would suggest giving them a call Monday.

... the slide actually separated from the receiver...

definitely call the manufacturer and request a prepaid return shipping label.
