Hi everyone!
I don't know much about firearms, I've been shooting since I was a kid but don't know much about how they work.
I've had a Taurus PT-22 for a few years and haven't shot it much, the last time I shot it was over a year ago. When I took it to the range the other day, I noticed it was firing multiple rounds per trigger pull. Sometimes it just shoots 1, sometimes 2, sometimes 3, and sometimes 4 per trigger pull. It seems to most often shoot 2 or 3. The rounds go off in such quick succession that it sounds like just 1 round is firing unless you listen really closely. I'm definitely not pulling the trigger multiple times, and the time I hold the trigger down doesn't seem to affect the number of rounds fired. I fired about 100 rounds out of it and nothing seems out of the ordinary except for the multiple rounds per trigger pull issue.
Anyone know what could be going wrong with it and if it's potentially dangerous to the shooter?
