I played around with one of these about 2 years ago. A T&E gun brought in by another importer/distributor.
I am glad to see Pietta has more than likely made some improvements, as the initial one I used was horrible. I fired several thousand rounds from various ammunition companies, and the misfires and jams were frequent to say the least. I had issues with perhaps 50% of the shots fired. The magazines fit poorly out of the box, they would not seat properly unless extreme force was used. The follower in the drum mag would get stuck frequently.
It looks however, like Pietta may have listened to our criticisms!!

Sorry for the OT... and this might have been mentioned before...
But an M1 carbine 22 replica would be a sure hit, I know myself and at least one shooting buddy would grab one ASAP!

I love the folks who put forth their knowledge....
Of course you are basing this conclusion on your personal experience ??
you own one ??
How many rounds have you fired out it ?
How much testing did you do before arriving at your negative conclusion ?
