    Never had a FTF or FTE with mine, but I've only shot hard ball ammo in it. I bought it used, maybe someone already worked on it. LOL

    I know of 2 others that have been reliable to the owners but they are not serious shooters. I am sure there are more than a few out there that run. I have had enough bad luck with ATI/Thompson Auto that I avoid. JMHO peoples. If you have-em and they run.....run-em.

    Calico, I like it but it does live up to it's reputation. usually about 2/3 empty it'll start to jam as the spring tension drops. I don't care how you do it (box, drum, helix), engineering a spring that works from 100-0 rounds is hard!

    My little Walther P22. I heard lots of people had problems with feed ramp. They should include a dremel tool with the purchase. A little touchup on the ramp, and it works great! It is also way more accurate than I figured a .22 with that short of a barrel would be.

    Oh and thanks to those that sent me messages welcoming me back. It's amazing how much I got done around the house without the temptation of INGO.

    Bushmaster ACR. Really is a great rifle and design with one of the smoothest bolt operations I have ever felt... but a bit front heavy. Neglect from the factory and lack of caliber conversions seems to have created a love/hate relationship.

    Definitely my Jennings 22 pistol. It’ll run clean and is more fun to shoot than good pistols with $1k+ work
