Ammo in your GSG 1911 22LR Pistol

Prompted by the post by /u/Corvek, I thought it might be nice to separate the discussion regarding the ammo you use in your GSG.

Mine is not very picky at all with ammo. I have shot Remington Golden Bullet, Remington Subsonic, CCI Std Velocity, Aquila Super Extra, and Remington Thunderbolt with no issues.

I clean my pistol relatively regularly, and I use Hoppes No. 9 between the slide and the frame. My slide to frame fit is relatively loose, but without a significant rattle.

Approximate round count on my pistol is 1500

What are you shooting in your GSG? What doesn't work?

I have a gsg mosquito. Jams on most ammo except CCI. CCI is flawless.

CCI Mini Mags?

I would imagine so as the manual states it requires HV ammo, which CCI MiniMags are. Lots available in retail stores in the GTA.
