Fix my gun Tm22 Light Strikes

I recently purchased an 18inch tm22 pro. But I’ve been having a hell of a time with it.

First time shooting I was getting a light strike every other round probably 50% failure rate.

I broke it down fully cleaned and oiled everything and took it back out to the range and I’ve found I’m still getting light strikes maybe 20% of the time which is better than 50%. I inquired about warranty service but that’s shipping on my own time and quite a long turnaround through SFRC.

Does anyone have any suggestions or experience with this? I’ve thought about cutting maybe a coil or 2 off the firing spin spring to make it easier to move?

Are they real light strikes or is the hammer not cocking? I had the latter issue real bad at first and I think it was because I was running bone dry

Real light strikes in fairly certain im inspecting each cartridge and it’s got a strike it’s just not deep enough to go off on the ones that light strike.

Same with mine. They go when you feed them back in. I had assumed it was the aguila ammo I was using.

That Aguila is the dirtiest ammo I've used. Gave me failures right away. CCI blazer ran 1000 rounds without any issues. Try cleaning and lubing the mag follower.
