Jlw,
I have had a Buckmark for several years and lots of rounds, and have never had any problems with it.
After cleaning, almost every auto will work better with a little lubrication on the wear spots. Just don't over do it.
My dad busted my butt when I was a kid for dry firing his .22 rifle, so I have NEVER done that again, but I DO occasionally sit around the house and pull the trigger on an empty case.
Put an emtpy case in your gun and pull the trigger, and see if the gun jams that way. If it does, I would suggest taking it to your smithy, and let him look at it.
