Is this true - "the only way to duplicate it is... with no magazine in it" ? Have people who successfully created this problem posted results of attempts done with a loaded mag?
If the problem...
Agreed. 135+P Gold Dots through my .38 S&W J Frame is not bad.
Did you just ask a question you know the answer to?
Does the answer to your question matter?
You have an excellent resource for duty ammo that passes FBI / IWBA protocol gel testing. It's the Self Defense Ammo FAQ. Every round on it was tested with all protocols conforming to FBI standards...
Perhaps. Obviously would be relevant for all of them. It gets very hard to find loads that pass FBI testing protocols in short barrels - e.g. nothing does in .380. And for .38 special there is...
ATK's testing for years has never shown this, though I don't think they've used barrels under 4" (they've put on an enormous number of ballistic gelatin workshops over the years). I didn't see any...
If 147gr HST was relevant to you before they screwed it up, then just switch to 147gr Gold Dots. Terminal performance is outstanding in all FBI and IWBA gel tests. And Speer has the best pistol...
I just called DD tech support, who then consulted their warranty manager, about this and here is there response. For reference, I was interested as I own 2 of their 2014 Mk18s and 2x 2017 V4S's.
...
How did you get this to work? The combination of the battery on the bottom of the cap and the O ring made the entire cap sit where its threads were fully visible sitting above the sight body. In...
I have a theory on this problem - since all the sights ship with a new CR123 installed, and the battery lasts 1-3 years, and this sight is only like 1 year old, I bet the vast majority of owners have...
I would not recommend this sight... I decided to function test my SRO prior to mounting it to my optics-ready VP9.
It worked fine just on the table (testing buttons / modes etc.), until I function...
Which is part of the reason that I'm not asking CZ to look at anything, even though they offered. I think the burden is on Magpul to make sure their products work without pushing the envelope as far...
Wanting a Scorpion is extremely explainable after you shoot one, especially compared to a pistol at > 10 yds, and recoil / rapid fire, and transitioning rapidly between multiple targets. And...
CZ warranty offered to look at the problem upper. He basically agreed that it's maybe in spec, and it's just a Magpul mag catch + PMag combo problem. Or maybe out of spec, but what do you do...
Concurring - CZ warranty today said the "lower" is just a trigger housing and not considered a lower at all. The "upper" is the firearm.
Warranty was unable to confirm whether the 922r floor...
I do plan to call them tomorrow and will post their response. There's some guy there now that answers both for parts and technical support (Jacob I think?) who sounds miserable to work there... he...
If I don't use PMags (= the windowed mags work out), then it's a non-issue. Again, 800 rds through it using OEM mags, and I thought it was perfect until the PMags (and maybe it is...). Call me...
Because if I did this and it worked fine, I would not consider them fit for home defense, and would therefore return them anyway. Reason being that I'm already trying to avoid a known feed lip...
I would not have predicted this... the problem follows the Upper. It does not follow the lower. It does not follow the bolt when swapped alone.
A "good" lower + the "bad" upper will fail exactly...
I bought 3 Manticore mags when they first came out a couple years ago. I and my father both shot them. All 3 mags reliably had several double-feeds (per loaded mag) in all tested Scorpions, with...
Glad it's been interesting and maybe useful for you. I didn't expect the slugfest this turned into (not with Magpul, but the forum in general). But the main goal of getting everything out there and...
Sorry about posting only one message here so far... it was my first post, and I was notified during submission that it required moderator approval before it would actually appear. After like 2 days...
Bottom Line
-- I own 2 SBR'ed Scorpion Evo (former) pistols. Just received 16 x Scorpion PMags from Brownell's today.
-- All 16 catastrophically fail to seat properly in Scorpion #1. All 16 can...
