I shot the Chiappa LA322 deluxe takedown 22. 20 shots, failed to extract every second shot. Then the frame cracked. What a fucking scam.

It’s worth noting that Chiappa .22s and Chiappa M1 carbines and other cheaper stuff they sell are made by Chiappa. The lever guns in bigger calibers are made by Armi Sport and sold under the Chiappa brand. I’ve had Chiappa lever guns that were higher quality than real Winchesters. Armi Sport is also one of the only companies that don’t put those disgusting lawyer safeties on their repro lever guns.
