Fix my gun / Modding What Fixed My TM22 Light Strike Problems

My tm22 had tons of light strikes, even after being sent in for warranty "repair" twice. I finally got it working reliably by doing two of the suggested fixes people recommend. Neither of these fixes worked on their own. The trick was removing the left extractor AND cutting a few coils off the firing pin spring. Just sharing this for others who are having light strike problems with their tm22s. I avoided cutting the spring for a long time because I didn't want to void the warranty, but the warranty "repairs" were useless in my experience

Mine is a pro, but I'd guess the bolt carrier/extractors/firing pin are the same on all of them

Ah, I was wondering.

I’ve got a pro 12”, so far no issues in about 2K rounds. Cycles HV and SS.

Maybe I’ve just got lucky so far.

Seems like most people don't have issues, but it's a real bummer to get a lemon. I got mine right after they the warranties switched from O'Dell to SRFC, unfortunately. I've heard that O'Dell does great warranty repairs

Sending a warranty repair to SFRC is like sending it on a deep space mission, will be years before you see it again
