I've been shooting it for the past two weeks with no problems. Temperatures have been in the 60s and 70s and the gun was flawless.

Sunday we had our Steel Challenge Match and I was anxious to shoot for the first time with this build. Heck, it's been working so well with over 2000 rounds through it without a jam. It became a Jam-O-Matic Sunday. Every stage and almost every magazine.

I was shooting the the Revolver Squad and got nothing but comments that I should have brought my 617. The revos just don't seem to jam.

Today I went to the local indoor range to test the gun and my magazines. No problems. Temps were again in the 70s and it was nice inside.

I think I need to find a new oil for cold weather, like we are going to have any more cold weather here this year, Ha Ha Ha. ( It's Phoenix BTW.
