It is a piece of Walther...shoot it enough and slide will probably crack too. Fun little suppressor host, but built out of pot metal.Curious why you had to initially push the slide into battery and the last shot hold open didn't work.

They don't take kindly to being dirty, lol. In the case of this Walther it's actually pretty reliable for the first 200~ rounds after cleaning with good ammo then it starts getting finicky like you see in the video. Add a silencer and that 200 rounds turns into about 100 due to the extra blowback.
I will say this guy has made it through a few hundred rounds by the end of that video, I haven't cleaned it since the... revolution 9 review I think? It's been several months. I hate cleaning guns.
Which Walther is it? I have a PPQ M2-22 I run suppressed and haven't had any problems. It has well over 1,000 rounds through it. Same with my 22/45 Lite.
I will say the can is pretty quiet. One problem with newer cameras is that the mic has an AGC that can't be turned off. This makes the suppressed shots seem louder than they are.

I'm working really hard to have it sound as "natural" as possible and you are correct that auto modes for most cameras really suck for silencer work.
