Thanks guys I appreciate the info

I bought this gun specifically to be a shooter, that's why I wanted a 1970s becasue I understand they are mechanically more reliable than the old guns, I'm not much of a collector. I think when you have something old in your possession, it should still work.
It is kind of fun to shoot with, learning the quirks that come with it, like that malfunction I had recently due to reloaded ammunition and perhaps improving it over time, like the magazine refurbishing G.T. is doing for me with two mec gar magazines. I think it's definitely more fun to have than one of today's standard pistols
