It seems it was not resetting the trigger after first shot. Then it went off unexpectedly; thankfully downrange. I'll clean it out and try again, but right now I don't trust its safety.
After cleaning it tonight, I see this one has an issue. I loaded an empty mag and tried cycling the trigger / decocker. The trigger seemed disengaged with the firing pin. Once I released the trigger and tried again, it is fine. This happens consistently. A guess a trip to the gunsmith is in order, as its current state is unreliable and potentially dangerous.
