And you know what? I'm really happy with it! It was the last straw when the price dipped to $279 from $299 lol.

I know some people have recieved 84BB's with rust and pitting, but I guess I lucked out. There's some holster wear, superficial scratches etc. Nothing too bad.

It feels really solid in my hand. Clearly an old gun, but also built like a little tank hah.

It did arrive pretty dirty despite being inspected and cleaned up. I did my own cleaning quickly and oiled it (which I would do with any new gun). I also noticed that the trigger bar was a little wonky... I couldn't get the slide back for reassembly without kind of pushing the bar in manually, otherwise the slide would catch. Hopefully it was a one time quirk.

But overall, a really nice piece! I was hoping to get one manufactured in my birth year, but was off by 1 ¯\\\_(ツ)_/¯ I already grabbed two Mec Gar mags which fit flawlessly.. now just looking into some wood grips (nothing against the all black police look, but wood is classy) and a holster.... and of course some range time!

I'm sorry everyone. I have searched, found, and read through multiple previous threads and posts regarding this (including the one from 2 days ago). Unfortunately, I'm at my wit's end. My TX22 compact is just causing me headaches every time I bring it to the range.

I'm having FTF issues on a basically brand new TX22 Compact. Well, I've had the issues since it was brand new, but I think I've gotten 300 or 400 rounds through the gun over multiple range trips as I try to troubleshoot this. It usually looks like the round is just hitting up against the front of the magazine, not feeding correctly. Sometimes it seems like it feeds too aggressively and gets caught up like in the first pic.

I (generally) keep a perfectly clean gun to the best of my ability. I clean my guns after every range session, and I go to the range at least twice a week lately. I probably have lead poisoning, but my guns are squeaky clean lol. I know 22LR is dirty in general, but the issues occur whether it's my first magazine with a clean gun during my range session, or my 10th. And this has been happening since my very first time using it (after cleaning out the shipping/storage grease and lubing it up appropriately).

Have run a couple different ammo brands. CCI Blazer is my go-to, but I've run minimag, and even the CCI 'clean' to try and keep things... well... clean. I havent tried eley / competition rounds, but I feel like I shouldnt have to in order for this gun to shoot reliably.

I cleaned and ran a copper brush to polish the feed ramp. I open up and clean the mags with a mag brush as part of the cleaning process, followed by a spray of aerosol dry lube on the inside for good measure.

It's still happening on average once per mag. Better than before, but still not really acceptable imho. Once in a while I get a mag that empties flawlessly. Other times, I get multiple jams/FTFs per mag.

Happens completely stock, as well as with a relatively lightweight/cheap red dot on top.

I'm close to the end of my rope and about to contact Taurus about this if I can't find a real solution, since the gun is still pretty new. But I'd hate to send it away because its honestly just a fun thing to shoot. I just wish I could use it more reliably!

Any help or info would be greatly appreciated.
