[QUOTE="jmike314, post: 2071775, member: 26830"] Went to Heartland today and finally broke in the my MP1522 with a good friend. Had a can with 2000rds of Remy GB - some say it works...others say it doesn't...I was gonna find out one way or the other. Had the standard 25rd mag + 2 Promag 32rd mags...we loaded all 3 and took turns on the trigger keeping 2 mags loaded at all times. Through 6 mags (3 me, 3 him) only problem was that his last round failed feed. Just him. Realizing he used the same mag (Promag) each time, he popped 5 rounds into it and fired down range...last round failed to feed. After removing this mag from the rotation, failures were few & far between. We did a dozen or more rounds of this with 25rds or more in each mag...doing the math that's easily 600+ rounds. Were there failures? Yes. But only about a half dozen...and all were feed issues - no FTF or FTE. [b][Broken External Image][/b] Not too bad for its first time out. S&W doesn't recommend it because of reliability and consistency issues. I've heard people say it's horrible through the MP1522. It worked...pretty darn well. Maybe it's their "New & Improved" secret formula or something, but whatever it is, I'll be taking the Remy GB out again next week. [/QUOTE]
