I've had my RIA FS for about 6 years now.....round count 2000-2500,had some FTF problems in the first 200 or so rounds....replaced the Novak mag that came with the gun with mags from Wilson's and the FTF went away.........you take chances no matter who makes the gun..or car....or coffee maker....I've seen Smith's and Rugers that had to be returned several times(yes,fewer of these than less expensive guns)......it is a mass produced mechanical device.......be prepared for the possibility of problems,and rejoice if they don't appear........I would not hesitate to buy another,or recommend the RIA to someone looking for a good budget shooter
