So 300 rounds later, i can confirm that the Mec-Gar mags are crap..
They work fine if the gun is cold, but after 50 rounds, it warms up, and i get a failure to to to battery.. When i go back to hte DW mags (Chip mcCormick, not Ed Brown as i mentioned before) they work fine all the time.

Either way, the gun is a hoot.. but for some reason the more i try to be accurate, the worse i shoot..
Apparantly i'm over thinking it....

When i just raise, point&shoot within a half a sec, and back down again.. instinctively and faster, my groups improve and i'm hitting the 9's and 10's..

If i do it the way i was taught for accuracy, one handed ,raise above the target, slowly exhale, drop down to the target , preload the trigger, then geeeeeeently squeeze the trigger.. i bugger up

when i raise, and fire with follow ups without dropping down again.. my group won't be as tight, but it 's all in the right area in terms of "taking care of business"... I'm guess it will improve with time..

Anyway, i like it.
started looking around for reloading gear.. . book on the way, figure i'll start myself off with a Dillon Square B for 350 euro, some assorted tools and i can be on my way for about 600...

Just need to find a way to recoup more brass... right now i'm loosing about 20% either they fly to far, or they fly the wrong or they get lost in between the other stuff on the floor...
