  • Please let me know if this is the right place. My father purchased a used American made Walther tph. After taking it apart cleaned it and lubed it and took it to the range. The problem is the gun will not cycle. The extractor is working fine, after the bullet is fired the gun will eject the casing. I know many 22 guns are ammo sensitive.We have run just about everything except cci stingers.

    The only problem I see is the slide meets much more resistance when it slides over the hammer(hammer cocked ). I did polish the friction surfaces and it help.

    With the hammer in the cocked position should there be resistance. The hammer could go another3/16th untill it would bottom out.

    suggestions?

    Typically the Hail Mary test of a .22 function test is to use cci .22lr mini mags.

    I have a stainless american tph, It runs flawless with mini-mags and federal auto match.
    Has the pistol been broken in ? How many rounds has been shot through it ?

    not sure how many rounds previous. It is running better the more we shoot it, we have about 75 rounds. Looking for some mini mags.I picked up champion match but haven't been able to use them yet.

    Thanks for the feedback guys.
