Anyone know of a gunsmith that can tune this pistol to cycle properly ? I have had it for years and really like it but the frequent jams make it no fun. It is an early production . I believe the serial # may be down in the 5’s. I know that other owners say it is ammo picky but I have yet to find any that works consistently.

I have the 4 inch barrel automag. It is picky and works best with heavy bullets but still goes bang, click, bang , click every once in a while. It ejects just fine, I have to cock the hammer after the first round fires...the hammer doesn't seem to get the job done on the first strike.

I had one 28 years ago,, it only worked with Winchester super x i sold it off it jammed alot also except with super x.
Most likely. Based on the age I'd replace the hammer spring, the firing pin, extractor and spring, polish/lube the rails were there is friction. The stove pipe could also be under powered ammo or stiff recoil spring. Try decreasing the recoil spring by a coil or two.
