Strelok I've been eying those for my russian/opfor loadout, what were the lemon issues specifically?

@Biorage:
Nah, the PMm looks ugly as hell to me, and I've got a set of bakelite grips and a holster on the way for this. Gotta have that proper cold war Mak look. Though, I'm tempted to grab one just for the russian sidearm lineage I seem to be gathering.

@localfreerider

From what I've read. Its been the following:

The valve knocker and magazine doesn't properly line up in some models. Making the gun useless as it can't run enough gas through the system.

Some have had very very tight tolerances. Which I can see in mine, but not nearly as bad as some people have reported. Some folks have said that its difficult to get the magazine in, drop the slide or even use the magazine release as the springs are very stiff. Mine has a bit of laggy slide travel, as the inside of the slide cavity is kinda rough. I'm gonna disassemble it and polish it up once my warranty is over and see how that fares.

There were also some other issues where the gun won't reset unless the slide is pushed in. Which it would just end up venting gas. Haven't seen this with mine yet.

And lastly. Trigger bar and hammer sear issues. Which I can very well see happening with this in the future. The trigger bar looks and feels cheap. And the it creaks when you fire it in double action. I would absolutely not recommend testing the trigger when on safe with this as it could very well snap.

I lubricated every little bit of this gun with superlube and silicon oil and seemed to have remedied the creep and creak. Feels a lot smoother. Hopefully this will be enough to keep stress off of the bar. Once my new propane adapter comes in I'll make a firing video of it.

Heres a pic of the slav pistol family so far.

When you say Prime, is it TM or WA based?

Just a simple WE M84 with aftermarket wood grip. Unfortunately no trades, so I opted not to get a grip with Beretta medallions.
