[QUOTE="mavs, post: 3692844, member: 47865"] I have a S&W M&P 22 Compact that my wife mostly shoots. It was a disaster when I first got it in that about half of the rounds would fail to eject and actually were jammed in the barrel and I had to use a cleaning rod or a wooden dowel that I made to remove the brass from the barrel. I finally got fed up after about a year of taking the gun apart after about half of the rounds to remove the brass and finally sent it back to S&W. The provided pre-paid shipping, turned the gun around in about 3 weeks and did a "repair" on the barrel according to the paperwork. Since then I have not had a single failure of any kind which is completely unusual for the cheap bulk 22lr ammo I am shooting in it. Probably well over a thousand rounds and zero failures with it. I also bought a Glock 44 when ammo got so high because I have a Glock 19 for my EDC gun and it's the same size as the G19. It fired every round of cheap ammo I put through it with maybe 2 or 3 failures in the first couple of thousand rounds and no problems with magazines or anything else with it. Then I bought some Federal Automatch and it's garbage ! I get at least 2 and sometimes 3 fail to feeds out of every 10 round magazine. It's no big deal to just rack the gun to feed another round, but this is the only ammo I have had with any kind of problem like this in it. I only keep shooting it because it is readily available at my local Walmart and only about 6 cents a round, so I'll put up with the annoyance of having to rack it to get it to fire since I don't use if for anything but target practice.
