[TonyF]

I bought a .mil model (green) about two years and finally took it out for a test run last Saturday.

I was a bit concerned amid all the negative reports about this pistol with respect to reliability.

I fired 200 rounds of remington high velocity 40 gr solids.

I had a FTF on the second round of the first magazine.

An FTE at some point before I finished the first box of 50 rounds.

And a third malf that I induced by not letting the trigger completely forward to reset.

IMHO, two gun related malfs in the first 40 rounds isn't all that bad for a brand new pistol. It then ran for another 150 without incident except for the one hiccup I caused with the trigger.

The trigger isn't horrible as DA/SA's go but being a 1911 / glock guy it took a bit at reacquainting myself with the DA system. As such, I'm wondering if some of the negative press surrounding this pistol isn't due to operator error?

I'm sure they're ammo sensitive and that might be a factor but many .22 LR autoloaders can be. Mine seems to like the Rem 40 gr HV's.
