Did you clean the gun before using it, especially the striker channel? New guns are sometimes loaded with extra grease to keep things from rusting while in storage at a gun shop, etc. I would completely field strip it and clean the crap out of it first and retry.

That's my thought. I cleaned the gun before first use, but it looks like I over lubricated the striker assembly. Appears to be very wet. Was thinking that I might soak the slide in denatured alcohol since I can't find any info for disassembling the striker. Would like to be able to break it down completely and clean out thoroughly.

hold on there
never hears of using alcohol
get on youtube and search for a video on dissassembling and cleaning

Did you try different ammo? What ammo were you using?

Black Hills 124gr JHP +P. Haven't tried anything else yet due to the noticeable difference in the primer strikes.

Thanks going to hold of on the alcohol. Viewed a couple of videos and am going to try to disassemble and clean.

Ran gun scrub through both ends of both ends of the striker since I had little time. Tried shooting again and it shot flawlessly. Will be disassembling the slide for further cleaning. Learning is fun. Thanks to all I'm smiling again.

Try and stay away from shooting +p ammo with the nano unless its self defense. It wears the gun faster. I have one myself and love it. Have over 200 rounds through it with only one FTE which I think was because of the cheap ammo and limp wristing.
