A couple jams isn't "pretty good" for an Edge. It should run 100% after break in (500-1000) rounds. The STI guns are fitted tight.
The magazines used in the 2011 (STI widebody) guns are long enough to accomodate, .45 ACP, 10mm, .38 Super and a bunch of other rounds that are longer than a factory .40 SW. When you load factory .40 in the magazine you will see the rounds will have some room to move forward in the magazine. If you drop a magazine or even just strongly rap a partially loaded against an object the rounds can get misaligned in the mag and either pop out or cause reliability issues.
Under normal use, this won't cause a problem, but say I do a table start with gun and magazine laying on a table. At the buzzer I grab the gun and drop the mag. I pick up the mag and find the rounds are all out of alignment and won't feed in the gun. The fix is to load the rounds out longer to fill up the mag so they can't shift as much. An added benefit is that they feed better as well.

Do a search on Matt Burkett and "timing drills". Matt explains how to get input on how to shoot fast pairs on IPSC targets.
For IPSC, there is a WORLD of information over at

Read the forum there.
There are lots of things you can do to an Edge to make it custom to you....even your own grip modifications......
