Default 2206 FTE problem

I have had 2 unsuccessful range outings with my "new to me" 2206TGT. I at first thought that the problem was due to a dirty mag , but after a thorough cleaning after the first outing, the problems continued. About 3-4 times per mag I am getting a stove pipe jam of the spent case.
Any ideas ?
Pete

Mine does the same thing, though it might be from a previous owner dry firing it and messing up the forcing cone resulting in FTE. After having a gun smith try to basically "fix" that problem, nothing changed and the problem continues.

Check the integrity of the chamber, extractor, and extractor spring. (use a magnifier)
If you haven't already done so, replace the recoil spring with a new OEM one.
Check the magazines for damage. (feeding areas at top)
