I have two. Like most other autos, it is picky about ammo reliability. It also refuses to work with cheapo or damaged magazines. The chamber must be kept clean.

Both of mine are great shooters, reliable and accurate for a rimfire handgun. Pretty much on-par with a Buckmark or Ruger, but with the power of a rimfire rifle in a 6" SS handgun.

I like 'em, but understand every gun that left the factory was not equal quality. so I don't regard them as a good choice for a beginner or someone who is not handy with a deburr kit, as tey do have some sharp edges.

I think they are a great design that would do well with some modernizing.
