Well kicked Deez nuts an email. Was going to start to take some sandpaper to it, but it's clearly out of spec. Honestly sort of annoying, $20 for something that's not even made right.

Lets see what they say.

FWIW Deez nuts was very helpful and nice. Even replying to me on the holiday. He suggested I sand down some edges, I lubed it up seems to be dry cycling pretty good now.
Last weekend I tried to run it dry and it would make it about half a mag or so, the more I ran it the better it ran, could be ammo, could be the break in. Now that I lubed it, I can get it to choke if I really hold the trigger but it seems to functioning correctly now. Should take it out again this week at some point.

Another A++++ rating for 144.1.   I ordered a FRT off of ebay months ago( another supplier).  Would jam after 3 rounds.  

Replaced with a drop in 144.1.   Not a single stop.  It ripps and goes burrrrrrr!  It makes me smile.  Every time.

New to the TX22 FRT here.  FRT from Deeznutz is installed in the frame.  I believe correctly from watching several videos.  When function checking it, I can feel the trigger being reset but the slide gets hung up to the rear.  Does this mean that the top of the FRT that sticks up into the slide needs to be polished?

Got a silencerco sparrow suppressor recently and was wondering how it would run, or if I would have to add weights.  

It actually runs better suppressed then not.   Non-suppressed, I would get a stoppage or two every couple mags.  With the suppressor on,  I have shot about 10 mags with no issues.

This may finally push me to get one of my TX22's going fast!

Any recommendations for a budget mini red dot that will hold up to the fast recoil?
I don't need the cheapest, but I'd like to avoid spending trijicon money if I can.

You don't need it. For the first shot it's fine, then you will have no chance. You might be able to keep 3 or 4 on paper. It's incredibly fast , more of a min of frig type shooting, even with the comp.

Edit, I'm using this. https://www.cyeleeoptics.com/products/cat-srs6-pro

Anything on a Farrow Tech chassis

Nice, I kind of figured aimed shots would be a toss up.
I do like that chassis. Would be fun to mount a Steiner IR to it to track point of aim with nvg's on without adding much weight.

I use an Olight SE enclosed (RMRCC footprint) on mine. I find it fairly controllable and accurate in bursts.

Ive riddled out the last nth of reliability for mine

I got all the feed issues fixed a little while ago

The only problems I was having was the occasional fte. Once every few mags or so. Thought it was simply the spring that was giving up the ghost but that wasn't the case.

Perhaps the parts wore or there's always been a slight tolerance. But my extractor had the slightest play before encountering spring pressure

I slightly stretched the spring and found a tiny piece of rubber to jam between the extractor and its plunger. This took up that tiny bit of play I was having

Things a fuckin sewing machine now

It took some work but woooo this thing is a riot

@chase45 would you be willing to post up a consolidated tweaking guide? I’m not sure I’ve captured all your mods but looking to take a weekend day sometime and go through mine to improve reliability as you did…. TIA!!!!

That would be super valuable. Finally got mine installed last night and I was only able to get a half a mag to run with supersonics unsuppressed, steel striker housing.

Having trouble getting mine to run suppressed. Competition model full size, polished steel striker housing, modified polished and debured brrt style frt. moonlight machine works rate reducer with choice of aluminum, stainless, and brass weights.
can choices are aac prodigy, and silencerco sparrow. Frt and rails greased with a good moly grease.

I am trying to get it to run with circa 2008 federal bulk pack, which I have a ton of. So far it will run about a half a mag then I get a dead trigger with a live round in the chamber. Once striker resets, next round fires, ejects, and loads another round, but dead trigger again. Have tried lighter trigger pulls as well as harder. Tried using all three different weights also. Using factory Taurus 16 round and 22 round mags.

Any ideas of what to try next?

I wonder why some have trouble running suppressed and some don't.   I put a silencerco sparrow on mine and it runs better than before.   The only extra weight I have is a small red dot.  

It even runs different brands of ammo better.  I have some hollow points that non-suppressed, would only shoot 4 or 5 before stopping.   With the suppressor on,  I have gone through a dozen mags without 1 issue.

Yea it is strange. I guess it is just variations on manufacturing?
Mine ran like a scalded cat, but if I put the tandemkross compensator on it, it stopped working and became single shot.
Take it back off and it ran perfectly.
I added a lead filled optic mounting plate to the slide and it now runs with the comp.
I have no desire to run mine suppressed.

Thanks!

This is getting pretty refined at this point. Have a plan rolling to get these billet charging handles out too!

@GripnAK47s has this gone anywhere?

I really want a chassis, I like the Farrowtech but its best feature is also its worst - the pin retention. It’s likely solid as hell but repeated pin removal and replacement seems to loosen things up too much for my comfort.

This one, meanwhile looks great. Are you planning on making these commercially?

Got mine back out today. Used some high velocity ammo and thing ran damn well.
A ton of fun.

My safety does seem to be a bit floppy though. I can't remember if it was like this out of the box or if it's something I did while messing with the FRT installs.
Honestly considering just getting a delete kit of ebay or something.
