Have you ever seen a Standard Auto go full tilt boogie after a home polish by someone not knowing what they are doing. How about a cyclic rate at about 1200 rpm with no hope of releasing the trigger until the clip is empty. They are scary, they are scary as hell.... As a range master I had a shooter do just that on the line with a range full of shooters. It is hard to describe how scary that little 22 auto can be when it malfunctions.

When you load the gun the first few times, only load one in the chamber and one in the clip. But I really suggest you take the gun to a gunsmith for safety sake. Most smiths will not reduce the trigger pull on a standard auto past 3 pounds because of the chance for a full auto event.
