Gun and gear reviews This one ain't no šŸ‹

Derya TM22 pro 12", man this thing is fun. I ran 1500 rounds through it last weekend, 500 Federal Champion, 500 Aguila Super Extra, and 500 s&b canadian match. Ran great, only issues were the odd f2f, but upon loading the struck round back in it would fire. It was dirty after 1500 rounds but functioning just fine. Shot it out to 180 m with hits on the ipsc plate using a PA 3x prism which was a great combo for this lightweight shorty.

Honestly so impressed it doesn't even feel like a cope. Im surprised these 12" models have not received more publicity, I dont even think there are reviews on youtube.

I don't understand the hate the TM22 gets on here. My 18" admittedly had some hiccups in the first few hundred rounds, but I'm up around the 2k mark now and all it does is go bang over and over.

I've only ran automatch through mine mainly. Runs great. A few misfeed/malfunctions. But bulk .22 in a semi will do that.

It also ate 2 boxes of CCI standard in a pinch when I ran out on a steel match. No issues there.

I have bought six so far. I had a problem with one. The trigger would not reset after it was pulled. O'Dell fixed it in a day and sent it back.

I have the 18" myself, I really need to swap out the stock on mine and add a forward grip instead of the current bipod I have on it. I have a 3-9x40 cheap amazon scope on it and its pretty much dead on 1' grouping at 100 yards.

I've put roughly 5k through it since April, have even taken it out squirrel hunting a couple times with mixed results, though I like my bolt action 22lr more for squirrels which is fine. I bought my TM 22 as a plinker and to scratch that tacticool itch. Mainly the TM22 is heavier and I find the cheap scope kinda sucks in lower light in the bush on overcast afternoons and evenings when trying to pop some tree chickens. I'll stick with my bolt and open sights for hunting.

I can't complain about the TM22, other than the inconsistency I have found with after market mags. Just bought 3 15 rounders and another 25 round from CSC and none of them fit properly when I received them. Very tight in the magwell, wouldn't drop out, and I literally needed a second hand to remove them when they got stuck. Basically just moulding error tolerances, just had to sand them down slightly to fit consistently. Took all of 10min with the 4 mags, Im just glad I checked them before heading out shooting as I wouldn't have had sandpaper with me.

Aguila is one of the dirtiest ammo I have ever shot. 200 rounds through my GSG 1911, starts to jams, misfire, double feed and etc. I only trust CCI

I have one, no issues. Personally havent had any issues with my Turkish guns. I see people here complaining like crazy about them, but the only issues I've ever had out of the 20ish guns I've bought have been with Savage and Ruger.

I have tikkas, savages, Stevens, girsans, norincos, Rugers, Beretta, CZ, etc.

I keep them clean and maintained to the best if my ability. The only consistent problem I've had with the Turkish ones is that they aren't oiled or clean out the box. 20-40 mins of TLC and your set.

Duuuude... I'm getting my PAL in the mail soon and want the 20" TM22-Pro, but this is exactly the look I'm going for. Could I bug you for a list of the parts you have on here, namely that sight, fore-grip, and muzzle attachment?!
