Great review except he is reviewing a T&E gun, not the retail product. This resulted in two incorrect statements. The MK10 ships with one 30 round mag, not two. Also, it ships with two buffers, standard and H3. The 8 ounce buffer for extensive use of high end loads (Buffalo Bore, Underwood, etc) or for shooting suppressed is a $60 option. These items were included in the box for the T&E guns but not the guns sold to end users.

I enjoy mine to no end. She has pleased and surprised all who have shot her. The RADIAL DELAY BLOWBACK works so well that a woman was shootin it that hadn't shot much in years, and she was havin some fun with it.
The only ammo issue has been with some weak sauce LAX rated at 1050fps. They would cause some FTF, but the Magtech was flawless.

The Banshee got me lookin for an AR 9mm pistol.

Did you try the carbine buffer with the lighter ammo? That one is included with the gun and should improve function with that ammo.

Nope.  8)
I got a great deal on 4 boxes of the LAX and it runs good enough without changing anything. Plus, if I only put in 20 - 25 its good enough.

It is useful to remember NRA does not allow any negative comments to gun reviews they publish. Try to post one and it will never show up.

That very well may be true.
But, IMHO, this gun is everything that they say it is.

I'm now thinking about getting the 9mm version.
