I bought one when they first came out.
It didn't feed. I called the factory and they sent me some new mags free of charge. The new mags worked.
There is no comparison with the trigger to a real High Standard. The real one has a fine smooth trigger.

All else being equal, you will get much better service, parts and repair with a Walther from Earls.

Pardini service, (in my opinion only), is a bag o' shit.

Nah, I want it to stay adjustable.
It's probable that oil got it loosened up. Maybe if I clean it it will tighten up.
Low strength Threadlocker 222 might do it.

Thread tightening question

What can be used to tighten the threads on a trigger adjustment screw and still be usable?
I'm thinking of candle wax, but I'd like to know what others think.
Threadlocker seems like it would be difficult to move, even if using the lightest formula.

Dirty pellets are like unopened pistachios. There's plenty more where they came from. At a pub, I threw a nickel in the urinal. When I went back in, it was gone. Some things are not worth bothering. For 22 rounds—a quote from Larry Carter; "f you drop a round on the ground, no matter how clean ...

You can't have a very short stage without modifying the L shaped connector. It would need to be shortened at the connecting point. Do it at your own risk. If you shorten the travel of the first stage too much, it can make it prone to multiple fire. Always test the safety of the adjustment by cycling...

Here's the part numbers for the mag parts.
It doesn't show different buttons. The mags complete are very expensive.
It's difficult to understand the part numbers from the picture.

There's no need to go through such convolutions. I used tape for about a year while waiting for a replacement spring. It worked fine. Even without the slide held back, orange weed trimmer cord through the barrel and out the chamber should be good enough for a RO. *Edit* ¡Fred, you beat me to it by a...

Electrical tape around the slide, at the area of the catch. Make sure the tape doesn't scrape the frame.

I wouldn't say that it's nose heavy.
The balance point with 5 rounds is exactly on the trigger.

I remember Fortitudo Dei had posted being able to adjust the 2 screws in the front of the buffer, but on my gun they are tight in place. Thomas Rink was also mentioning on http://www.sportschuetzen-forum.de/ that these screws are not adjustable. I know that when I tried moving the screws, they would...

It's not too heavy. It's perfect, with perfect balance. My gun has a glass crisp trigger setup and has worked perfectly without any failures in over 15k rounds. The grip just sucks, thats all.

If you want more info, speak with George Brenzovich in Texas. He has a lot of info on this.
