    A while back, I replied to a post about the Chiappa 22LR Pistol. I
    warned the author, not to buy one because of all the FTF and
    FTE problems I was having.
    To make a long story short, I contacted Chiappa, and they sent me
    a new magazine free of charge. That and a few other quick fixes,
    and I now have a very good cheap pistol.
    The new magazine, was put in around the 300 rounds fired mark.
    Since then, I am up to around 1700 rounds, with NO mechanical
    problems, and RARELY a FTF or FTE, no matter how fast I pull the
    trigger.
    It is accurate, and will shoot most high velocity ammo.
    Yes, the GSG is a better pistol. Where I live, they are $90 more.
    If money is tight, the Chiappa, can be a good pistol.
    I just felt this post was needed, to be fair.
