Its always done so, from the get go, as it was a bit of a Bitsa Blaster.
Frame was TM, upper slide from a Guarder kit, silver inner barrel also guarder. When i picked it up from AH, it was ruff to rack and cycle. We lubed it, and was told to give it some use to wear it in.
I sat and cycled it, watching tv a 100+ times, and relubed.
Its still stiff.
It can lock back, in the rear position, with normal firing.
Need to tap the rear of the slide forwards, to close it.
Taking the top slide off, there is a bit of movement in the metal parts that grab onto the slide. Off to AH 2morrow, to get it looked at…
Might grab a CZ-75, while im there…grips are also avail on ali express…!!
There is a hang on gotta go the shed and remember myself that may help…
Dang it can’t remember the name just crunched a heap of bookwork and my brain fell out. @Friendly_Fire you’d know for fitters and getting things to wear in and run smoothly then remove lube and away you go. Bugger
Yeah, we’ve discussed this particular problem of the stcky slide over the Al Capone.
Should be a pretty easy fix… my guess is Wong was too busy looking forward to his lunchtime noodles to do the assembly job properly back at the factory.
@BME Yell out if you get no joy and we’ll apply some aircraft technology to the issue… i.e. glue, chewie and spit.
It sounds like a binding issue because something that’s supposed to be fixed isn’t…
Ah Chinese manufacturing… how they brought about the demise of Oz manufacturing ain’t no mystery… all down to money, cos skill and quality sure ain’t the reason.
I think there is something funny going on, with the trigger bar, on the RHS…with the custom real wood RE grips…
It was a bit weird.
Sometimes, the double action would not work.
I deduced, that LEFTwards pressure on the trigger, would cause it to operate normally.
RIGHTWARDS pressure, and the hammer would not cycle.
It was like the safety was on.
When i pulled the right grip off, ( with the funky little spring, that puts upwards pressure on the trigger bar) it would cycle.
Grip back on, back to the issues.
I think the Wooden grips might need some relieving, around the trigger bar.
It seems to wanna flex out a little to reset properly…maybe the proximity of the grips stops it.
Maybe not resetting properly, leads to full auto fire.? @roksolid, have you seen that before.?
It didnt seem to have that problem, with the plastic RE grips.
I reckon you are on the money there, the trigger bar not resetting properly might prevent the seer from resetting causing full auto?
Neat little trick if that is what you want!
