I wrote about the problem I had with my Sig Sauer Mosquito not firing 3 to 4 rounds per 9 round mag.
I called and talked to a tech. about the problem. he said I needed to send it in for repair.
I had to pay $55.00 shipping to Sig.
I receiver it back. The invoice said I had the recoil spring in backwards.
That could have happen when I cleaned it after firing.
the invoice stated that they "TEST FIRED USING CCI MINI MAG WITH NO MALFUNCTIONS."
I took it to a combat shoot. I purchased CCI mini 22 from the range.
I shot half the course using Winchester 22. I had the same amount of failure.
I shot the second half using CCI mini.
I had the same amount of failures.
I just got off the phone with Sig Sauer "AMI".
She was extremely quick pulling up my folder.
I explained I was having the same problem with non fires.
The first thing out of her mouth was the correction of the recoil spring.
Then she asked what ammo I used. I told her I used CCI.
She asked what grain.
I did not remember.
Then she explained that the Mosquito was made overseas. They used a hotter load.
Then she said that Sig stopped importing the Mosquito and that another (firefly) is now.
She said the Mosquito must use only CCI 40 grain to be Reliable.
I stated to question Sig Sauer quality BUT hung up before I got profane.
I found the box of CCI i purchased and they are 40 grain CCI.
