AMT Automag II

Hey guys,
I puchased an amt automag II from my father and the gun jams up like there is no tommorow usually every other round. I have been told to try different ammo, I have tried every 22 mag shell I can find in it it seems to run best off of cci maxi mag v. I was also told there is a feed ramp problem but the person who told me this has never looked at the pistol. I was wondering if this is a common proble with AMT's or if the problem is just not hot enough ammunition. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ryan

don't know how to post pics. or i would. but
my question is if it would bring more money cause the serial # is #1 [:0] . ran into this one today [:)]could email someone with pic. if you wanted to see it never had a #1 gun before
just curious on possible EXTRA value
Does anyone know if the slide should lock open when the magazine is empty? I didn't get a manual with the gun, but for a gun in great shape (except for jamming) for $200 I thought i'd take a chance.
thanks

Welcome to the forum boards, here on GunBroker.
There is no special formula to keep them running, but I do believe they suggest to use Winchester Super-X ammunition only, from the factory.
I know that some love them, and some love to hate them. I am with the later group, as I had so much problems with them, I wouldn't even order one for any customer's who wanted one any more. I put a lifetime warranty on everything that went out my door, and those and Mossberg shotguns, cost me a lot of money.
There are several threads on these, here in the "EXPERTS" boards, if you use the search icon.
