Stalker, what problems did you find with the Dragons that you worked on out of curiosity?

Well, one of the grip safties had popped out before delivery, and because of that the middle flat spring wasn't sitting on the hammer sear, causing the hammer to not latch back. The same gun didn't have enough oil in the blowback boat/nozzle, so the hammer would also catch on the underside of the slide and jam it open. Had to put a finger in to pull the hammer down to release the slide. After I sorted out the flat spring needing to be put on the hammer sear, the gun started working properly. Which is good because it was only shooting in full auto. Lol
The other issue I found on one, but was able to fix and prevent on the other, was a peice of the inner slide was jamming on the hammer/valve linkage return lever. When the hammer hits, the linkage moves forward to strike the release valve, then the cycling slide trips the lever which pulls the linkage backwards to reset it. Basically, I used a needle file to angle and round off both the lever backside and the part of the slide that kept jamming into it.
Aside from those, there haven't been any other problems I've found (ok, one had a leaky mag and still does). Considering that I'd never even seen the inside of any type of HiCapa before last week, I figured things out pretty good! :lol:
