Then get a couple of cases of ammo, your cleaning kit, a cooler of cold drinks, some hotties, and resolve yourself to going to the range and banging rounds till it stops, taking a break, cleaning it, and repeating as necessary.
I would not take it back to the smith for the problems you have cited till I had at least 500 rounds through it, preferably 1000.
As long as it is oily and wet, I would not worry about the brand of lube you are using.
