Anyone have a pistol barrel nut wrench they want to part with, rent, sell, loan? HBI is OOS and I have a handguard on the way.

Took my Scorpion out to the range today. Put about 250 rounds through it. I didn't clean it before I took it to the range (I should've). Great shooting gun! I did have Six or seven FTF or double feeds. This was towards the end of each mag. I used four Manticore mags and the rest were CZ factory windowed mags but the twenty rounders ran great, the 30 rounders I had some issues with. Not all though. I was using bulk blazer brass ammo. I'm not too concerned about it. I am going to clean it tonight and take it back to the range tomorrow. Might run some federal ammo with it and see what happens. Overall I am happy though.

Haven't heard of many issues with factory 30s even when the gun is dirty. Interesting...

Now that I’ve seen my first scorpion with the Tailhook 1C, I will revise my opinion. I still think the big one looks like dogshit but the 1C is much, much better.

It does look better, and just before I decided to purchase the regular tailhook. It usually works out that I would have ordered the regular tailhook and then saw your post. Thanks! |

I was going to sbr mine and put a proper stock and vfg on it. Now the compact tailhook has me reconsidering.  Cost wise I already have the SB folder it came with so I need the GHW cheekrest and tailhook, which will be $200+. I guess I can sell the SB to recoup some of the cost. That or SBR stamp plus cost of factory CZ stock... |

I will say it was a PITA to screw the supplies screw through the B&T stock. Very very tight fit. Hopefully I didn’t make the hole too big that it’s going to be loose if I put it back on my APC.

I'm a little peeved....
I bought a Binary to go in my gun and when I went to remove the screw from my trigger pack, i managed to strip out the head. Not sure how you do that with an allen key, but I did it. I called CZ and they confirmed that i don't have a welded screw, just blue loctite... Now I'm not sure what to do |

Get a drill bit that fits just right in the hole in the trigger guard and drill the head off. I can’t remember the screw size but you should be able to google foo it then buy it at Lowe’s. I bought a 4 pack I think for a couple of bucks. If I had any idea where they were I’d send them to you. |

He is what you need to do, with the link to HB Industries video. They also have the drill bit with replacement screw or you can source what you need locally. Great accessories for the Scorpion and tremendous customer service. https://hbindustries.net/store/shop/carbide-drill-for-scorpion-trigger-pack/ |

I have a HBI charging handle and installed a Midwest Industries hand guard. Yes there is some roughness to where the charging handle rubs the anodizing or whatever coating the handguard has. I figured it would be a wear point and already seems to have lessened. I put some red grease on it and its helped significantly. Its still definetly not as smooth as the CH on the plastic factory HG but I prefer the MI HG and HBI CH enough over the other parts that I will deal with the increased friction while the coating smooths out. Its not as if you cant charge the weapon. Its not a big deal IMHO.

you can drill out the head, through the trigger guard. Then just break off the head with a pair of pliers, and the trigger pack will come out. From there, use pair of pliers to twist out the screw. Many have had this same thing happen, when I say many, I mean most. HBI sells the replacement screw kit--totally work it.
