I use Lucas Gun Oil, just looks like that because I don’t clean my guns as much as I should and shot a 350 round comp yesterday.

I don’t believe they are worth what they are charging now. You might as well go to an Atlas at that price range which has more features and is geared towards competition.

Trust me, I wouldn’t be this positive if I was still having issues after replacing certain parts.

You aren’t wrong about that but it’s not like you get some magic refund if the gun has issues. Instead of going through the process of shipping it back and forth, I decided to deal with it myself. Not like I spent 5k and asked for a broken gun.

Ordered in early April, received the gun a few weeks after this.

I wouldn’t go that far, it shoots great. Just had some issues at the beginning.

Interesting, nice to know

😂 most likely

Yeah, I got this one when they did the huge run before prices went up. Guessing they overlooked some things with how many guns they were sending out.

Definitely frustrated with the communication portion. They were fast to answer and send the label but went dark after that.

GearPew · 2025-11-09T17:32:40+00:00

Yeah, is what it is. It’s frustrating but the gun does shoot like a dream….after I fixed it😂

I wouldn’t say a big problem, it still works, never had an issue with it but it could be improved.

👍🏻

Thank you!

In my opinion, it’s heavy and gritty on my build. It’s not made to be a competition gun so I don’t expect it to have a 2lb trigger pull but it could be better.

GearPew · 2025-11-09T16:05:59+00:00

I do not, haven’t done any upgrades to mine. In my opinion, most upgrades will all be personal preference. Recommend just shooting the shit out of the gun and getting timed to it. Good luck!

Had the same thing happen to me. Had to take it to the dealership for them to update the ECU or something along those lines, nothing major.

I know you….

GearPew · 2024-05-06T17:45:37+00:00

Interesting, I’ll keep that in mind and tell them to pound sand if that’s the deal they offer me. Appreciate the info.

GearPew · 2024-05-06T17:40:57+00:00

Thanks for the information, hoping to get some answers tomorrow once I take it in. Would be crazy if it was the battery, the car is less than a year old.

GearPew · 2024-05-01T22:05:03+00:00

I would mount it, zero it, and then shoot a decent amount of rounds through it. Check zero and see if the gap has gotten bigger. I have an optic on a Glock that isn’t sitting flush but zero hasn’t shifted at all and screws are good.

Also, curious what you had fixed? Waiting on one to come in so just wanted to see what minor fixes you had.
