Back in August I placed a WTB ad for a pink ISSC M22 pistol for a co-worker of my wife. Thanks to one of our members here, I found one.

Picked it up yesterday, looked it over, seemed alright, kinda rough, but I bought it.

Took it home, field stripped it, everything looked good. Put 4 or 5 rounds in the mag, went outside...

...BANG! click. Gotdamned FTE. :grumble:

Went back inside, took it apart, drove the spent brass out, cleaned it up a bit, back outside...

...BANG! click. :pissed:

Thought maybe the cheap ammo was to blame, so I loaded up some CCI Mini-Mags, the rounds that usually cycle everything.

Went back outside...BANG! click. :scream:

So...anybody got any ideas? It'll extract and eject ammo by manually working the slide without firing, but pull the trigger and it's a single shot POS.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Look at the shell for any marks. Could be something off with the chamber. Rotate a spent shell around in chamber to see if there are marks or feel drag. Also take a look at how the ejector holds shell.

I've had a lot of issues with late production .22LR ammo, but the CCI has been been pretty good...but still, where I fomerly trusted .22s, not so much in these modern times, too much profit mazimizing going on in ammo and guns today. Good luck on it, and there's always sending in for warranty work, but don't know beans about that brand...but might get a new gun out of the deal if bought used.

I looked at all the brass, didn't see any marks. I'm thinking it's the extractor that needs replaced. The spring seems kinda weak.
