Three weeks ago went out and bought one for myself and one for my son. His broke after the first 50 round and mine broke after approx 250 rounds. We had lots of FTF it almost became a joke with my son telling me just how many FTF we were having. I tried 5 different 22lr brands to see if that was an issue and let me tell you the CCi Stingers were just as bad as the cheep Bobcats. But I will say when it worked it was a blast to shoot and it will be one of my favorite guns. I did notice the problem I had was one that a lot have had. I also have a a Performance Center 357mag model 327. Bought it 1-1/2 years ago, I also had problems with it from the start. Sent it in and it has been flawless since the day I got it back. I did get my guns back today and I have been reading that they send back extra clips with the guns... Well mine did not have any clips with them at all... So I do not know if it is true or false but it sure would have been nice...
