Browning 1911-22 .... 8000 rounds and counting...awesome .22

I picked up a couple spare mags for mine at Goble's in London last week, they had at least one more on the shelf at the time.

June 16, 2012 Total rounds fire to date just broke over 5000 rounds.
I have now had 9 FTF and 1 FTL. The 1 "fail to load" was caused by misalignment of the round into the chamber. This 1911 .22 is just amazing.
I've fed this thing everything I've run across and it has eaten it up and asked for more. Nothing I've previously owned can come close to this gun for reliability. I've put another 200 rounds of sub sonic through this gun without one issue.

Progress report on my wifes 1911 .22 as of today its had about 2500 rounds put through it and we have had a few issues. I find ours likes to shoot the solid bullets best and seems to jam often misfeeding hollow points due to the shape of the bullet nose. Went back to solids today and no jams or misfeeds. Also at around 1500 rounds we started to get a lot of failure to fire issues and thought we got a bad batch of ammunition. When I did a thorough break down clean I found a heavy carbon deposit in the firing pin exit hole that I had to pick out with a dental pick is was packed in so tight. After that cleaning is fired again consistantly.
