Hey, the OP back here to add some more info for anyone who is considering one of these guns. Keep in mind (if this is your first gun with a tip-up barrel) that these guns do not have an extractor. If you try to clear the chamber the way you're likely used to, by racking it, the round in the chamber will not move. When you release the slide (and you will; it's hard to hold onto!), any subsequent round in the magazine will be fed into the back of the chambered one, resulting in a double-feed jam. Because the slide is so hard to pull, it will require some effort to clear it. So, always clear the chamber/barrel by using the tip-up lever, not the slide.
On a related note, use the same function to clear any misfire. In thousands upon thousands of rimfire ammo I've fired, I've never had one fail to light off, but there are those who swear rimfire ammo is not especially reliable. Should you find one round that does fail, you'll have to remember not to use your typical TRB drill to continue firing your pistol.
