CALICO M-900/LIBERTY I/II & 50/100 Semi-auto Rifle

could you get highcaps for the .22LR version as the "magazine" is tube fed?

I have the M-100 which is the .22LR, and mine has the collapsible shoulder stock (a rare accessory). It shoots well and is very reliable - it's one of the most reliable semi-auto, high-capacity magazine fed .22LR rifles I have ever owned/fired. Somewhere here on Calguns, in some long-forgotten thread, there are photos of it.

How did you get it to be reliable? Ive had problems with mine, mostly failure to feed.

Whats the trick on the mag, i know you have to turn the knob something like 15 times to tension everything up. I have one mag that has been about 98% reliable and the other is only about 80%.

they never sold well in CA, I remember Turners couldn't get rid of them. I've played with a few in my time... the helical feed mag is an awesome idea...butt ugly gun though

Freak, what's the story with the Blackstar rifle. X'mas is nearly upon us already & I'm trying to buy myself something nice. Before I get any older, please

Take the magazine apart and clean the helical grooves. .22LR has wax coating on the bullet which builds up and causes a lot of resistance.
