I have about 1500 rds through the wildcat. I took it down as far as I could upon purchase and gave it a good cleaning/lube. It also gets cleaned everywhere range trip. It has had maybe 5 fail to elects but that was due to shitty ammo that I was running.

The panzer is new to me but one of my buddies has one and has ran easily 600 rds through it with zero maintenance out of the box. I took mine down when I got it and also cha ged the o rings. I have about 60 rds through now with 250ish manual bolt cycles as I read it needs some wear in. I have had 1 fail to extract due to a lighter target load vs my regular full power buck.

People are fuddy as hell. Everyone hates new things or things they don't have.

I'm looking at getting a panzer, I've had good luck with Turkish guns. As long as your clean and lube them, they work like a charm.

I'm glad your having fun! Don't mind the people with not better than criticism

Maybe I have a horseshoe stuck up my butt  i have yet to have issues. I also find that about 60% of people I come across who need to warranty any firearm should not be allowed anything beyond a BB gun. 

I have seen some really unnecessary abuse of firearms in the name of "I am just seeing if its relable". Tell me the last time someone needed to fire 500+ shotgun rounds or 300 .22lr rounds in succession and had a valid reason.  to me thats like putting your car and park and bouncing off the rev limiter to see how good the engine is.
