VQ parts?

Hello,

Are the Mark lll sear issues a one time bad batch that got out? Are those issues corrected now? Or is it just a few that had a glitch?

Thanks Jim

OK, range report, My mags, both have basically no clearance from the ejector pin to the mag lips. They go in the same, bolt closed or open. You really almost feel you have to push the mag release in to get the mag in, it is such a binding feeling, like the mag release is stopping the mag insertion. ...

I just want to make a small point. While I have yet to take my Mark lll to the range , My Neos used a spring loaded striker that was released with a sear. The striker was moved rearward by the action of the "slide", and the spring tension moved the striker forward. I did not have a single non fire, ...

When I bought a Bretta Neos in December, I bought a 525 box of Remington Golden and a 500 box of Winchester Xpert 22. The Winchester's had a more blunt or square end and the Remingston's had a rounded end. Out of 1,000 rounds the Winchesters had about 10 FT feed and the Remingston's had none. I lear...

This may be a premature question. I have a new Mark lll and was looking at the extractor pin, in relationship to the magazine lips. The pin is touching the lips on both magazines. I have not had a chance to get to the range yet. It is unfired at this time. Both magazines seat the same, bolt open or ...

UPDATE...........................

This morning I field stripped it. The blue locktight did in fact seize the bolt.

The 3 screws that hold the weaver rail on, the rear one goes all the way thru. The front 2 do not.

Thanks for all the help.

Hi Greener,

Owe you a beverage. Hair Dryer, gentle pry with screwdriver, it moved slightly. Then a tug and it came out. Looks like the back screw hole goes all the way thru and too much locktight will lock the slide.

Thanks Jim

I have not done anything except install the weaver rail. I used blue, so I'll get the hair dryer.

New Mark lll bolt won't move

Hello All, I have a new Mark lll Comp. Never fired. Installed the weaver rail today. Used blue locktight on the screws as suggested. Looked at the pistol a few hours later and the bolt is frozen, like you can not move it. It looks like it is rearward about 1/32" inch, like it is not all the way forw...

Hi bearandoldman,

I want a scope for bench shooting @ 50 yds. I'll use the Matchdot for 25 yds. My 68 yrs eyes need some help.

I may use a 2x on the 25 yd range and try to make only one hole.

I am wanting your pattern.

I'll look into Tasco.

Thanks Jim

I also got a Ultadot Matchdot to go with it. I am also wanting to get a scope in the 2x7 range and liked the...
