There is a lug which extends down from the barrel assembly which had a small piece fracture from it. After this the slide seemed rather sloppy and also I experienced quite a few misfires--it was not apparently the ammo as an old Ranger .22 rifle never exhibited this problem. Am a little doubtful about the longevity of this arm. Think the Ruger line may be more durable. The pistol was a great shooter, though.
