This little pistol is giving me nightmares!
Recently had a 'smith replace the ejector and that made no difference.
A very helpful fellow at the range suggests that the chamber likely has a burr from dry firing, and reccomends lightly filing the chamber where the firing pin strikes.
I've tried about 5 or 7 different types of ammo and can't fire a full clip without 2 to 6 stovepipe jams.
Found a very informative website (thanx to THR) with some good tuning tips. Modified 1 of my mag's feed lips very slightly, no noticeable change.
I'm open to any and all suggestions/ideas, though I haven't yet tried filing the chamber. Removing metal from that part of the gun is on my "last resort" list- I'd send it to the factory first.
My urge to solve the problem myself - some call it stubborness- has me obsessed. After all, aren't 22s 'spose to be cheap and fun to shoot?
