MG2- Just because I said…

[julioalperi]

Just because I had said that my MG2 was 100% trouble free, I feel necessary to say now that yesterday I had one failure to eject issue.
I own the pistol since March the 5th of 2007. So the pistol is just 13 months old.
The gun was perfectly cleaned before the shooting session. Dry, free from oil where it should be.
Ammunition was Aguila Super Extra. Cheap ammo for training.
Observing the jam I noticed that the BIL (2060) was involved.
I shot 75 rounds. The jam occurred in shot number 20 (last shot or 5th shot)
All 15 series were shot at 6 seconds.
I know I shouldn´t expect tight tolerances from such a cheap ammo.
The brass was so hard that caused a small dent in the BIL (2060).

I leave this commentary for your consideration.

Julio, too little too late me thinks.

I have had an MG2 for several years and (now) mine is about as reliable as anything else that I see around here but the damage has been done and I wouldn't take a .32 if they gave it to me.

For information, at the last WC in Rio do Janeiro, there were two women using an MG2 for the 25m pistol event (one MG2 = silver and one MG2E RF) and one man using an MG2 for the RF event. Gold went to Pardini in both events.

Just fixing your typo

Dont get me wrong, the MG2 is a dream to shoot - not that I am an expert but others who are and have tried it have all said so. It is just Matchguns' reputation has been tarnished by their continued problems in my opinion.

I have a tobelfree mg2 . (10 monds old and +/- 3 a 4000 shots)
A person i know had somme minor problems with his to eject.
I told him to mail matchguns with his problem.
Morrini told him to comme to a big match in france, and there
Morini replaced al inner parts of his pistol for free. (and made him a
custom grip for 125€ )
And, his mg2 is (until now) trobelfree.

Mi want "tobelfree" mg2 too.
maby Morrrini help. Cesare and Morini Company tobelfree frinds!

Well, do I have to bring my none-reliable MG2 to the Morini company to get it fixed?
I was not aware of that option:-) - until now.

I never meant or intended to encourage anyone to buy this pistol. In fact quite often other shooters get close and see my gun attracted by its unusual appearance. I tell them the same every time “if you get one that works, you´ll probably feel better shooting this pistol than shooting anything else, but if my pistol works, it doesn´t mean that your´s will, if you buy one”.
In case you are wondering: “ Yes, I have tried the Pardini”.
