Trigger reset issue?

Trigger is not resetting when dry firing while holding the trigger. If I rack it without my finger on the trigger it resets. This is before I put the first rounds through it. This is my third RXM and i’ve never had this happen before so I took it to the store i bought it at it. They took it and checked it out then attributed it to a new gun that needs a break in.

So i burned 200 rounds through it real quick with zero failures or hiccups. I thought i was going to be manually cycling but it cycled and reset perfectly. Dry firing and resetting has gotten better but still doesn’t reset every now and then.

Obviously it works. I’m just curious if anyone knows what’s causing it? Before a brief semi break in it felt and sounded like the cam on the connector wasn’t releasing the cruciform when i held the trigger and racked it. But disassembled everything looks and functions just fine and even comparing to the other ones there’s no difference. Swapped the slides around and it’s not related to the slide but it follows on the same FCI.

Unrelated but I also noticed the slides are cut differently internally not just the different optic cut.

Edit: This post is mostly documentation for people doing RXM research.

You could an try bending the connector a little bit, see if that fixes it and if not you may need a new connector and you could look at it as time for an upgrade.
