Welcome to the forum, Chris.
Another satisfied 15-22 owner. Although I had the common issue of extractor problems, S&W took care of the repair with shipping both ways at their expense. They included two new magazines at no cost when they returned the rifle to me.
Any product when new can have some issues. Computers, wash machines, automobiles have all had some problems at times, especially when bringing out a new model. S&W is standing behind their product 100% with timely fixes to any breakdowns.
Oh, and the 15-22 doesn't use clips, it uses magazines.
