For reference it's this model:
https://www.smith-wesson.com/product/sw22-victory-0?sku=12080&preselect=1
I went to clean the Victory last week. what I thought was just carbon buildup in the flash holes was actually a pile of lead. A rather significant pile when it was all said and done. Soaked it in ed's red for 5 days. While I got some out, it remained pretty clogged up and I actually scratched it up pretty bad in the process. A call to S&W has a new one on order for me - no charge, even though I said I messed it up, so that's pretty awesome CS right there.
However, I suspect the new one will lead right up in a short time as well.
the pistol shoots more accurately than I can, and there is no evidence of any other issues with it either. Just lead in the comp/hider/brake
Anyone had any experience with any of the other aftermarket available brakes - maybe any of the ebay specials that might be better in that regard?
