So first trip to the range with the M93 and general impressions are its a pretty good functioning gun for the money. Grips are a little small for my hands and it digs into your palm on the right hand. That will get sanded down. The sights need some adjustment and were shooting low and left (pretty sure it wasn't me!). I will also look to paint the front sight with something luminescent at it is difficult to pick up (I was indoors). Any suggestions?
I also tested the following 22LR with corresponding results:

20 rounds of each

CCI Blazer (clear plastic holder) - faultless
Fed Champ (50 rnd brick) - faultless
CCI Blazer (500 brick) - faultless
Winchester 37g HP (50 brick) - faultless
Winchester 37g HP HV (100 Brick) - 1 FTF and one dinged round I tossed.
Winchester 40g HP HV (100 brick) - faultless but another ####ty round was tossed.
CCI Stinger - faultless with a big muzzle flash - my favourite!
Fed Bulk 525 - 1 FTF and the another 40 rounds faultless
Winchester Dyanpoint (bulk 500) - 3 FTF then another 20 faultless.

All in all great little pistol that is not as picky with ammo as I expected.
 
Wish I had better luck with mine a few weeks ago. I am having trouble with FTE an average 5-6 per mag. I tried 6 different types of ammo with the stingers working the best with 1-2 FTE per mag. The only thing I didn't do when I cleaned it up at first is take the firing pin and extractor out for cleaning. Everything on the slide was just wiped down because I'm not sure how to disassembly or clean it without disassembly. I will try to clean it better and take it out again on the weekend for another try. It seemed like it would be a decent gun if I can solve the FTE issue. Nice to here yours is working fine for you.

I only did a basic blackstrap and slide of clean but I did lube it pretty liberally.
