I’m a huge fan of the BG2.0. So much gun in a small package and surprisingly easy to shoot.

I bought one in the Lord’s caliber that shoots well after a couple positive FE reviews saying they fixed the aforementioned issues, but continue to hear this. Have an older mesa 6.5 that hasn’t been an issue yet, as well. Are the problems ongoing, currently? I like the .300 I brought to Africa a lot, but hesitant to buy another because of everything I hear. Wondering if I got lucky.

Not a personal disappointment story, but one I'll share anyway.
When my wife's grandfather passed away, he left behind a not-insubstantial collection of firearms, one of which was a finish-worn, lint-trapped Kel-Tec P3AT that "Pop" carried everyday in his pocket until the memory loss got too bad. Along with a few other selected firearms, my mother-in-law and her sister came to our house to test-shoot it with the idea that one of them would keep it. I warned them, and my wife, that it was not a fun gun to shoot, but that it served a purpose of being "the gun you have with you." I don't think I've ever seen a decision made so fast as their decision to not keep that pistol. The three of them shared one fully-loaded magazine and I don't believe it was empty when they passed it to me and told me to keep it.
I'm not what I consider recoil-sensitive, but I don't see a reason to punish myself by shooting that thing ever for enjoyment. It sits in the safe to undoubtedly go to one of my daughters someday unless my wife will let me get rid of it.

Rock island armory “2011” 10mm. Junk. Doesn’t cycle. Even with their own ammo.
