Had issues with this gun before I even went to shoot it. It came with 2 mags and I bought 4 more (two 2-packs) direct from Ruger. One of those mags (don’t know if it was one that came with the gun or one of the extras I bought) was VERY gritty and hard to load. And even before trying to shoot it I could tell that one would never work. So I never even tried it. I had a time even unloading it it was sticking so badly. So I contacted Ruger and sent that defective one back (at my expense) for a replacement. Time will tell how that goes. I took the gun and the remaining 5 mags out to shoot today and had nothing but trouble from every mag. Had a lot of jams and failures to feed with all 5 mags.

I’m upgrading my previous one star review on this which was based on the fact that out of 6 different mags in it (all Ruger mags) it jammed/misfeed very other round. When I got some more time I took it out again and on a hunch tried reseating the barrel on the reciever and giving it another go. This time not one misfeed in 6 mags and using subsonic ammo shooting through a dead ait suppressor at that. So I presume it just was not seated well on my first outing. And Ruger did send me a replacement for the really rough mag I sent back to them in a reasonably timely manner albeit at my expense. Is it on par with my Buckmark in terms of quality now ? Not quite. But it is a decent second place. And for value the TX22 beats them both. I still put the Buckmark a notch or two above this Ruger for build quality AND quality of the mags. After all one mag was super rough inside and out to the point of being non-functinal. And none of the Ruger mags had a great finish with all having rough sharp edges. None …
