Gun ran well when I got it. Now having feeding issue, multiples per magazine. Rounds start into the chamber, but don't seat fully. Each time the round is ruined (bent). It seems that the rim isn't popping up at the right time and becomes trapped by the forward feed lips. Cleaning the mags best I can didn't help. In desperation I removed the suppressor and it's even worse. Any ideas?
Taurus TX22 Feeding Issue

Yes, I'm sending it in. But with a 12 week estimated turnaround time, I had hoped for an at home fix.
I have a similar problem with the two mags that came with the gun. The cartridge rim goes underneath the feed ramp built into the mag. The round is ruined and can't be ejected without removing the mag completely and then fishing it out of the mag. Taurus sent me one new mag and said if it worked they would send me another. The new mag works, but now Taurus won't replace the other faulty mag unless I pay for it. I already paid for it once when I bought the defective mags with the gun.
I have over 3000 rounds through my TX22 and here's what I've learned. It either loves a brand of ammo or hates it. I have some old Federal stuff that I've been trying to use since there is a shortage and I have had plenty of issues with FTF, stovepipe, premature lock backs. My TX22 LOVES Blazers and it will shoot it without issue all day long. I did see one video on Youtube and the guy states that a dirty magazine will cause jams, etc.. Since seeing that video, I've cleaned my magazines and haven't tried to shoot it since.
