I do not own one but it is very interesting. Almost all or the manufacturers of semi auto .17 except volquartzen has recalled their semi autos as the round is know to rupture cases.
The one thing that held me back from buying a semi auto is the metric butt load of .17 that I piss through with a bolt action with only a four round capacity. If I were to have more rounds availble with just the pull of the trigger I do not think my wallet could handle it.

Haven't had any "bulging" or extraction issues with my 10/17 "maggot"...

Mine
is a single extractor model...slipped in an "exact edge" extractor from
the "gitgo"...

Hoping to get a PMR-30 for Christmas as a companion...:D

Not sure if it's legal to shoot them but I'm sure road kill is good to go! lol
