This was my first I purchase from Bud's, and I must say that Bud's is a totally professional, quality orginazation. I'm looking forward to my nexy purchase.
I'm took the pistol home, did a little de-greasing and went to the range, 200 rounds and only one feed issue, and that was when I was doing rapid fire with std volicity Remmington. I'm not pleased with the sights; black on black doesn't work for me so I guess I'll be upgrading soon. As far as teardown and re -assembly, I had no problems, just watched a video and followed the instructions. It's a little time consuming at first, but not bad.

Most accurate handgun in my hands. After the first few mags, it's been as close to 100% reliability as I'd expect for a .22 handgun. I can think of maybe 2-3 FTF's but they appeared to be duds because they didn't fire in another 22 either. Wickedly accurate, recoil is nothing, but unfortunately, these things are a bitch to clean, and therefore it doesn't get it as often as the rest of my guns. I would definitely purchase another in the future if I need another 22 handgun.

Amazing!!! Bud's gets an a+ Gun was received in 3 days right out of the box it fired 200 cci mini mags no problems went home and watched a vid on how to clean. First time is a little challenge but I got it down after a couple of break downs. Gun had zero rust or blemish marks on it, and to my surprise it came with 2 mags and a rail. For a plinker or snake gun this is hands down the best gun for the buck. The grips can be changed out the sights are adjustable and the gun is just over all great.

Received this gun in three days from the ordering date. Great, fast shipping. I've purchased four firearms from Buds and have had great shipping from them.

The gun arrived in great shape as expected. Magazines had a tight lock-up. You kinda' had to 'slam them home' with our palm to get them to lock. Nothing like my friends MKII. I guess it has to do with the polymer frame of the 22/45 (the mags have an odd floorplate), and the magazine disconnect.

I disassembled the pistol (whoever says this is hard obviously isn't too smart) in 5 minutes, then cleaned it out and oiled it up (the factory oil is a bit too thick in my opinion. I took it to the range today and shot CCI Mini-Mags, CCI Standard Targed (SV), and Remington Targed (SV), and Federal bulk. I had one FTF and it was due to the ammo - this was out of 190 rounds. The best accuracy was with the Remington Targets with a 1.5" five-shot group @50' using a two-hand unsupported grip. This was nice to see. This is with one click of rear sight adjustment to bring the group to the right.

I had a Browning Buckmark and while I really liked that gun, I LOVE this one.

To sum it up - the only issue I have with this gun is the stupid magazine safety, as it inhibits lockup of the magazine, makes disassembly/reassembly harder, and causes the magazine not to drop free (you have to pull it out). I have a hammer bushing on order for a MKII to get rid of this 'feature'. For this, I give it 4 stars.

Love this little shooter. Taking it apart and putting it back together can be a pain but it'll get better the more I do it. Great 22
