| After a brutal five month transfer process, I finally picked up my AAC PIlot. Did a quick "field test" in the basement (not a reccommended practice). Ran some CCI subsonic and standard velocity ammo through the 10/22, MKII and Glock/Advantage Arms 22 conversion kit. Both types of ammo ran flawless in the two Rugers, but would not cycle the AA/Glock combo. Indoors the pistols sounded like a CO2 pellet pistol. The 10/22 sounded like a Red Ryder bb gun. Range report and pics to follow. |
My pilot results: 10/22 w/16" bull barrel - cycles Aquilla Subsonic, Remington Subsonic, the bulk Federal hi-velocity, Remington high velocity, and many others Kimber with Marvel conversion - will only cycle the hi-velocity remigton ammo. WIll not cycle even the Federal hi-vel ammo and anything subsonic is single shot. Sig Mosquito (tactical model): will not cycle Aguilla subsonics but will cycle remington subsonics. THe bulk Federal hi-vel works pretty well, and of course all of the other hi-vel ammo works great. My favorite is the remington subsonic because it is quiet and cycles. My second favorit is the Federal bulk hi-vel. It apparently is very lightly loaded and is not much different than subsonics out of a pistol. As with any other .22 muzzle can, it gets really dirty really quickly. You just have to know this going in. Keep a can of CLP handy and you are good to go. The Sig:  |
THanks! It did not occur to me to call Marvel to see if they had a replacement spring!  I don't remember which model I got but I do remember that there were more expensive versions so I bet I did get the less expensive model. Ill check with them! THanks! (SOrry about Hijacking the thread!) More on topic with the thread, the Sig Mosquito comes with 2 springs, one stonger and one lighter - very cool! |
