Yecch. I was hoping for machined forgings. Still, Martin Retting has warranted the gun for a year, so I might as well try to break the action with factory loads.

One of the magazines has problems getting the top cartridge to the feed lips, notwithstanding the seemingly adequate spring rate. However everything settles in under recoil.<hr /></blockquote>Dear Mike:

I wouldn't worry about the pistol not holding up under any factory load, as most major firearms today, both rifles and pistols, are made from investment castings.

The magazine problem sounds a little unusual. Does the other magazine feed properly?
