I have an Erma La-22, i believe this is the first version of their .22 Luger. I've had this one for about 22 years. It shoots well with round nose CCI Mini mags. I had a problem with the trigger not connecting to the sear. The frame and barrel extension/upper receiver are Zamak (otherwise known as pot metal) The connecting pin is steel. The receiver openings had gotten enlarged being in contact with the steel pin all these years and the upper receiver sat just enough back for the disconnector to not allow the gun to fire. A small piece of nylon on the face of the steel pin was enough to bring the parts in proper alignment. Otherwise, it runs great until it gets dirty. It is quite accurate even after almost 60 years. I also have an ET-22 Erma "Navy Model" though it looks like a Luger Carbine. This also likes CCI Mini Mags and functions well all the time.
