Honestly you screwed up with the 597. Worst piece of junk out right now with the exception of the Remington 710. You would have been much better off converting a Ruger.

Just out of curiosity, if it is the worst piece of junk out there, then it must have a whole bunch of very serious defects, because I have seen some really bad stuff out there. What are all of the defects?

I bought one a couple of years ago because of the rave reviews it was getting. Biggest piece of crap I ever wasted my money on. It is extremely accurate but to get it to feed a full magazine of rounds is like trying to pull teeth from a lion.

That is inexcusable. That would make me want to pull my hair out. I am glad to know this.

Not to mention the trigger is terrible. I took mine apart and I swear they used ballpoint pen springs and plastic.

I have a 597 in a .22 wmr it is piece of s##t. i should have gotten the ruger. it does shoot good groups but you shoot 3 or 4 rounds and it jams.
