I've had one for quite awhile. Problems were Didn't like Thunderbolt or cheap dirty ammo. Feed issues. Easily fixed by polishing feed ramp BE VERY CAREFULL with replacing front sights. They fall out easily if not seated properly ! It took me 11 months to find replacement front sights and just by the grace of God found some off a parted gun ! Trigger is hard. Tried some things but nothing really helped Still like it but LOVE my Buckmark ! Shoots well suppressed
