    So have you found any ammo that will cycle properly will a suppressor?

    Oh totally!

    It's just that anything subsonic won't cycle it all the way (CCI Standards, CCI Quiets, Eley Yellow Box, Winchester Subsonic HP, etc). Anything that's supersonic will be fine. (Stingers, High Velocity whatever, etc).

    I wonder about this. I have a MKIII 22/45 that will cycle all subs I have tried except Quiets. CCI standard Gemtech subs work fine. This is with several different cans. I haven't tried a Mask yet. Have you tried any other cans?

    I haven't - the Mask HD is the only rimfire can that I own. I'd be curious to try multiple cans on the same host sometime as a test, though. Honestly I think my pistol is really borderline on cycling with the CCI Standards with the can on it. The bolt reciprocates and I can't "feel" a difference between that and a normal cycle. It just doesn't quite get far enough to the rear to extract the case, so the bolt goes back forward and the fired case stays chambered.

    I picked up a Mark IV Hunter from 2A Guns in Jessup about a year ago. Best price I'd seen on that one at the time. I picked it up on a Tuesday and got the recall notice on the Safety 2 days later. The mail back process was pretty easy and I'm guessing everything on the shelf today has been fixed. It's definitely not the Lite Model but I love the way it shoots.

    Anyone have this specific model? I'd like to check it out to see how it fits my hand before possibly buying one.
