This thread is a information gold mine. I'm hoping more companies start making handguards/rails for the Evo like Manticore is. I don't I didn't even want one of these goofy things until I saw the new stock and handguard (hopefully full length UMP style eventually)from you guys that made it not goofy. You'll have my business no worries

Straight triggers don't lighten the trigger pull, but they give the illusion because of how far the trigger sets back compared to a curved trigger. I personally like straight triggers and use them quite often. I bought the trigger pull gauge because of them, and to compare to curve triggers. |

Yeah I can see it effecting the feel of the trigger which might make it seems easier to pull and all that I was just saing it isn't likely to actually effect the true weight that much. Kind of a felt vs actual recoil thing if that makes sense. I'll look into a different trigger. |

After buying one, I don't think the position of the lever is optimum. It appears when holding the Scorpion like a handgun, it works fine, but when I install my Shockwave brace and brace it against my cheek, it changes my grip angle. So now when holding the gun in a firing position and the safety on safe, I am not able to reach the lever without significantly changing my grip. Also if you are going to SBR your Scorpion and going the ambi route, if the right side lever mirrors the left side that I have, it appears it may also affect the ability to fold the stock. I can't verify the latter part, but just by looking at pictures, the way the factory stock appears when folded, that it looks like the Apex safety would extend into the area of the stock, and preventing it from laying flat against the receiver.

I intend to modify the stock by adding a clearance cut to the stock. But I'm still not sure what stock I want to put on it when the paperwork comes back. I like the looks of the ACR stock or the B&T stock on the EVO but no adapters made for them....yet. |

Then I saw the $9 spring kit from HB Industries which is currently according to the tracking in Phoenix AZ. I thought for $9 it was worth a shot. I should have specified I'm looking for an aftermarket trigger shoe. Were I a smart man I'd have just got the HB Industries trigger shoe and called it a day so I could save on shipping but I am not a smart man. Now I'm looking at the Shooter Elements trigger. I like the look a little better. |

Yes I'm considering buying the Scorpion very soon with the purpose of SBR ing.
Has anyone got their form 1 approved yet with the info posted here: Name and location: Ceska Zbrojovka (CZ), Czech Republic ....... manufacturer? Model: CZ Scorpion Evo 3 S1 ............................ "CZ Scorpion EVO 3 S1" -this exactly? Barrel length: 7.72" OAL: 26" (with CZ folding stock) With 41F looming I don't want an error on the form1. The CZ folding stock model # to match the OAL: 26" is my concern, because I'll file the form 1 before I have this on hand? This is the OEM model stock and are they readily available? Thanks Bishop3 |

When I first saw that they had "922 compliant magazines" I thought it meant that the mag bodies were domestically produced also... Which does not appear to be the case. It's cool that you can buy the mags with the usa base / follower installed but saying that they are 922 compliant is slightly misleading, because the body is still imported and counts as a 922 part. Something keep in mind for those that are close to the limit...

Wanted to give some feedback on some parts manufactures
Small sample, so YMMV. HB Industries and Shooter's Element are both here in AZ. HB Over SE all day long. Ordered from HB. Safety delete CZ Scorpion EVO3 Reduced Weight Trigger Spring Kit Trigger Pack Hardware Refresh Kit Ordered April 20th in the afternoon, and delivered the 22nd. I'm in Gilbert, they are in Chandler. I ordered the trigger shoe and charging handle from Shooter's Element though. I liked the design better, I thought the shoes from HBI were a little bulky and not quite as sexy looking for the evo. Ordered Friday the 24th at 10:46 AM. Was delivered today at roughly 10:45 AM - 8 days later. SE is based out of Tuscon. Its a 2 hour drive from Gilbert. I ordered the red shoe, and was supposed to be engraved USA on the side. It was not. Both were delivered in a padded USPS envelope. HBI has some cool looking baggies with a pretty thick ml plastic, with the product name, part # and company logo. SE are thin little baggies. Just a little disappointed in SE. Price point, and few manufactures doing nice aftermarket parts, they really need to step their game up. As a side note, White Oak Armament is also in Tuscon. Ordered some some AR parts from them on the same Friday the 24th a 10:34 AM, Delivered Monday the 27th at 11:35AM. I wish my local businesses good luck, but HBI is getting my money in the future. |

Thanks; that looks like very similar to this one I found earlier today from Midway. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/939293374/midwayusa-heavy-duty-discreet-tactical-rifle-case The only issue I see with both is no way to secure the rifle within the case, which is one of the few complaints in the Midway reviews. Since the Midway case is on sale I'm going to pick one up and see what I can do to modify it. |

The MidwayUSA discreet case arrived yesterday and you are correct. It's a snug fit in the case with the stock folded due to the width of stock and receiver so shouldn't shift around much. It's an even better fit with the stock removed but that would likely move around. I'm thinking about cutting some foam to set it up similar to a hard case, with separate cutouts for the carbine, stock and some mags. BTW, the two permanently attached magazine pouches on the divider will each fit two Scorpion 30 round mags.
The 29" case may be a little long for SBRs, but I'd definitely recommend it for any carbine owners who plan on staying with the 16" barrel, especially at the current sale price of $22.99. It works well as shipped and with a few modifications could be very nice. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/939293374/midwayusa-heavy-duty-discreet-tactical-rifle-case |

The MidwayUSA discreet case arrived yesterday and you are correct. It's a snug fit in the case with the stock folded due to the width of stock and receiver so shouldn't shift around much. It's an even better fit with the stock removed but that would likely move around. I'm thinking about cutting some foam to set it up similar to a hard case, with separate cutouts for the carbine, stock and some mags. BTW, the two permanently attached magazine pouches on the divider will each fit two Scorpion 30 round mags. The 29" case may be a little long for SBRs, but I'd definitely recommend it for any carbine owners who plan on staying with the 16" barrel, especially at the current sale price of $22.99. It works well as shipped and with a few modifications could be very nice. http://www.midwayusa.com/product/939293374/midwayusa-heavy-duty-discreet-tactical-rifle-case Good to know. I was going to buy one for the girlfriend's AR once we finally build it. |

Some quick pics of the Midway case. It's a little lumpy when the case is closed with the stock folded, which is why I'm thinking of keeping it detached while in the case.

If not and its a can recessed under the rail, I may be inclined to leave the stock on and extended and can off (especially if it's 3 lug). Worst case for "rapid deployment" you could fire without the can but with the stock and be somewhat effective and not TOTALLY unsafe How much was the case? ETA: regardless, it's sexy |

I just received one today and with the factory base get a lower 1/3 co-witness with the CZ sights. Schuyler also includes a medium height UTG mount with the sight but it's not needed on the Scorpion. http://www.schuylerarmsco.com/product.primary-arms-micro-dot-with-removable-base-comes-with-a-free-riser-993  |

No one makes a prism that I like other than Vortex or I would run something better. That being said.....so far it's holding up great on my short .308......we'll see how one runs on a recoil operated platform. |
