Note for ya..
Congrats on a fine gun..
Make sure you keep an on-going round count and when you get to 200 rounds, try and open her up, completely, for a cleaning, as the powder residue gets thick after 230 rounds, enough for mine, that it was a guarantee, using JHP's, that from 230 on, one feed jam, and the worst kind, after the first shot, (stove pipes) and they are not easy to un-jam with all the pressure on the magazine.. You have to hold pressure on the bottom thumb release button, while pulling hard, to get the mag to drop just a little for the slide to cycle out the jam, and then re-insert the mag and get back on target..
With the blow-back action, it just gets dirty quick, and JHP's and the feed ramp, along with the mag followers get a big build up.. SO, if you keep her clean at or before the 230 round mark, she, least mine, will never jam.
Well oiled rails and guides
clean feed ramp and mag interior walls, spring, and follower..
Good, clean ammo, as I use only Federal or Winchester wb (all new ammo)
And be sure to read and follow the disassembly, reassembly, directions well, as the long, heavy, return spring has a larger front and a smaller rear, which the smaller rear part of the spring goes on first.. and the larger front end last.. KEY
Enjoy her,
