Outstanding

make you think about all the bougie setups out there don’t it?

(I wouldn’t consider that a “cheap” rifle, it does hit a threshold for reputation)

I love mine! I upgraded to their Fast Action 804 trigger kit. At first a had a problem with two mags not dropping freely so I called them up and asked whats up, I also wanted some night sights installed. And since they are down the street from me, I was able to take it them. I got new replacement mags plus an extra mag, the night sights installed and a new upgraded barrel. I was able to kick back in the lobby. Now no issues with thousands of rounds through it.

What are the issues you are having with yours?

Is the G2 version? I know the G1 all had problems and it's what gave FMK the reputation that have now

I’m not sure
It’s the bill of rights edition.
Father in law got it for signing up at Front Sight and he gave it to my wife

It’s more so a safe queen because bill of rights but also because poor functionality lol

They made a better trigger for it. I think it’s called the 808 or 804. Something like that. If the slide doesn’t go all the way back get a softer recoil spring. You will have more muzzle flip but it should eject and chamber better. If you are having failure to feed then go to a stiffer recoil spring. Also try 115 grain and 124 grain. See what it likes to eat and then feed it only that. There are wide tolerances in manufacturing weapons. The prototype is always perfect and functions flawlessly but when it comes to grabbing one off the assembly line not so much. Sometimes a gun needs to be broken in before it becomes reliable and sometimes it needs work to function properly.

THE 804 trigger is the 3rd gen trigger and is fairly new. Has a really short pull and reset, it's pretty nice actually
