I’d have to guess the issue is with the two magazines that you have. If it were me, I’d take the magazines apart to ensure they were assembled correctly. But I was always able to get 8+1 . In it’s time, the 3913 and 3943 were popular off-duty pistols at my agency. I never heard of anyone having issues seating a fully loaded magazine with the slide forward.
