Fix my gun TM22 Issues

So, I will say it’s gotten “better” after putting about 350 rounds but my current issues are:

Not so much failure to eject but failure to chamber a round/cycle a round. - I’ve found loading 8/9 rounds per magazine instead of 10 makes a huge difference however I still get these squibs? No bullet stuck in the barrel but it just explodes in the chamber.

The Tommy enterprise Mag sleeves were a bit of an issue, they don’t quite seat properly without a love tap and yes they are the proper fitment and secured tightly. The current video attached actually broke the mag sleeve.

I’ll post a photo in a comment below showing what’s happening to the shells when it just jams them rather than propels chambering the round. No idea if it’s just the ammo (Aguila interceptor) or if it’s too high of spring tension on the magazine or if I have an actual issue with the action.

Crumpled the round like this about 4 times and had it go off in the chamber about 5 times. 9/250 malfunctions isn’t horrible but I don’t love the idea of it setting off a round that’s not chambered.

Any tips?

Ps. Very rarely has ejection issues so I don’t know if it’s an extractor problem

Mag seating issue? Looks like bolt is trying to grab the bullet itself instead of the rear of the cartridge causing it to jam.

Does it do this with the stock unaltered mags?

It does but not as much. I’m going to take the sleeves off and try again and see if that’s the issue
