The magazine is the issue usually. Now you can get magazines with metal feed lips which the plastic ones wore out after 500 rounds or so. I was having trouble with mine several years ago. After a good cleaning and the new magazines, mine feeds great.
Great video, I just bought one used, it was destroying my rounds. I used a Ruger mag still had this same issue, but messing around and doing this helped a lot.
I use the Volquartsen extractor, factory replica firing pins (May forge my own from 1055 steel later on for more durability), and make sure that it's clean and wet wil oil.
I just acquired one of these Tec-22’s. Was built in 1992. Seems like either people love or hate these pistols. Thanks for the info on the magazine position.
I'm posting this on every YT video I find on this gun in hopes that the word gets out. This isn't saying you're wrong, because I don't think you are, it's just additional info to help avoid jams. In case you don't have the manual, I'd like to share with you and anyone who finds your video and reads the comments, what it says about ammo. "Intratec magazines are made to function with Standard, High velocity, Long Rifle Cartridges. Ammo with truncated heads, those with a sharp angle on the nose, can jam. Examples of truncated ammo include Remington "new" Thunderbolt (that word "new" was relevant when I got the gun in 1989 or 1990), Remington Viper, Yellow Jackets, and any brand of Hollow Point Winchester. Also, hollow point ammo, in general, can cause malfunctions." BTW, If you have the case for the gun, you might find the manual under the foam liner. Many people overlook it. I'd also like to point out that gripping the mag with the offhand when firing is the perfect way to create the kind of jam that you're talking about. Looks cool, but don't work for sh*t. LOL What 50 round mag are you using? I use Ruger 25s and I have the original Scorpion labeled 30 rounder that comes with the gun (a real bastard to load, BTW) and would like an easy loading 50 rounder. (that works)

Replace the extractor and use round tip lead ammo.

I got the scorpion model from the 80s. She was in appalling condition when I got her. She's a sweet beast now though.

Thanks for the insight bro #Subscribed 💯
A lot of ppl say to use a Ruger 10/22 extractor
Good video. Ordered one online
and what grain of .22 LR do you use?
Good shit man 💪🏾
Back in the 90's cost 150- 175
I got mine for 100
Just use Ruger 10/22 mags and be done with it
Please get some dummy rounds
How tf do I make my tec 22 full auto
U don't an say u did
It wasn't made to be full auto. There was a recall for auto bursts by faulty guns, but you're asking for trouble trying to make it full auto!
Proud of this american for chambering his 22 safely within his home
Reliable, unless you touch the mag. BS
Use poly shims in the back of the magwell.
