I called the company up today and they are sending me a fedex pickup slip to send it back for repair. I don't know if the safety problem has anything to do with it, but my son put about 40 shots through it this weekend and toward the end it locked up the slide and would not allow it to move forward or rearward. It also locked up the mag from being ejected. He had to take it down to get it to operate again but could not find anything obviously wrong with it. ???
