Wondering if this has ever happened to anyone… i was shooting my semi auto intratech tech 9 manufactured in 1987. On the 2nd round it went full auto on me for about 2-3 rounds and then i couldnt rack the gun back more than halfway. Took it apart and have a broken spring and plate in the back that i ordered parts to replace. Does anyone know what caused the gun to go full auto?
A friend gave me a Tec-9 several years ago. He said it didn't work and his gunsmith son-in-law had it for 6 months and said it couldn't be repaired. I popped it open and saw the tip of the firing pin was slighly bent. I didnt notice until I held it up to the light and slowly spun it. Then I noticed that I could feel it catching on a step in it's guide hole inside the bolt when I slid it in and out. I replaced the firing pin and went to the range. After 5x32 factory mags flawlessly spent I left with a shit eating grin and memories of that day for ever. So I come to this conclusion: this step-down inside the bolt just before the bolt face should have been made with a small taper or radius to prevent most of the bent firing pin malfunctions and reputation loss. When the firing pin heats up it warps enough to catch and once that happens it instantly bends. I don't know it this issue was addressed in later production. It would be difficult to confirm due to the location, a good firing won't catch no matter how you angle it on the way in. A tiny metal 2" long inspection rod would also be difficult because it would be up to a feel on that tiny edge to see if it's radiused. Also noted that the tip of the firing pin should be balled, not flat if it's not already. That will help keep it from catching the edge.
My og plastic receiver cracked near the back and I sadly haven’t been shooting it since…
Saw a DC9 in my local pawnshop yesterday for $700 w/2 mags, I’m very tempted to take it home but was wondering how much are these things going for at the moment? Appreciate on any insight.
I know it’s kinda silly to ask this but can tec 9s accept uzi mags? I just bought a tec 9 recently still waiting for it to arrive at my local FFL but a few years ago I bought a few uzi mags for no reason just thought they looked cool but now that I have them and this gun was just wondering if it would fit….
any of you guys work on or talk about 80% or printed tec9s?
Can anyone help me find a original tec 9 upper receiver with barrel shroud?
So got an AB10, came with a 50rnd mag and it doesnt feed at all. (Big shock) and it can be easily over inserted. So I got a new production 30rnd mag. The bolt does not come in contact with the rounds in the mag to strip it into the chamber. Could my bolt be worn out? I cant get anything to feed from either mag.
Just curious and if so why haven’t people done it?
It's unfortunately 10/50. Had to design a limiter for it because I'm in NJ. Patiently waiting for our mag ban to get overturned
Got this from Gunbroker. Glad I waited and scored the pre-ban.
Does anyone know where i could find some prints for the upper and internals? I want to put together an upper, but I don't wanna spend 500 on factory parts, and that's if I can even find em in stock (haven't been able to yet). I have some machines that I have access to but they are all manual so cad files wouldn't help much and I'd prefer blueprints so I can print physical copies anyways (I try to keep binders of prints for most guns I own).
As title says, are they any reliable rail mounting methods without drilling into the gun?
Finaly got one!
Hi, how much are early KG-99’s going for in reasonable condition these days? Thanks
First owner bought it in the mid 80s and never shot it. Accidentally ended up for sale around me
That's a lot of money
I bought a new extractor assembly with the spring and plunger from intratecgunparts.com and both spring and plunger don’t want to sit well inside. I had to force them in as it’s too tight. Plunger is now stuck & sticking out. Can anyone give some enlightenment? Thank you
