I would love to see before and in-progress pictures.

Yes. Unfortunately (as far as I know) there's one guy who makes them, and requires you send him the trigger group. I understand that what you get back is quite good though. ETA: http://sierrapapacx4.com/

The set screw hole is how they get access to the gas port hole. Set up the mill once, drill, tap, drill. I think it's safe to say, "Set screw hole is lined up with the gas port"

I have a Canik, it’s very nice. But that’s not the point here. I want to make this one better. (For science!)

Well... I got it back together reasonably easily and it still works fine...

Huh! Cool, thanks. I hadn’t seen radial notches like that before. My AR with a free float tube looks almost mil-spec.

Huh? How do you tighten the barrel nut without some sort of notch? You still need a slot for the gas tube. Can you post a picture of a notch-less barrel nut?

I didn't say anything about *seated*, I said *inserting*. Like there's something about actually putting the magazine in that isn't working right. If so, that would support the "magazine disconnector" hypothesis.

Is it correct to say that the problem is related to / associated with *inserting* a magazine?

Does it take two trigger pulls only on a full mag, or does it also take two pulls if you remove and RE-insert a half empty mag?

The one on the right might be a Beretta 92 mag

Who makes them?

I love that the 10/22 can look like nearly anything, and is still the same gun.

True. But it's a free test to verify the problem. If it works, buy a new spring. If it doesn't, it didn't cost you anything.

Thank you! I typed that on my phone where it's troublesome to look up part names. :)

I had the same problem. There’s a button on the left side that when pressed will eject a non-empty clip. The spring under it was weak. I removed it, stretched it to increase its length, and therefore the force it applies, and the problem went away.

Try running s staple gun with just your trigger finger.

What does "short money" mean for a VP70 these days? I think I paid under $500 for mine, more than a decade ago.

I bought mine for two reasons: 1) It was used in the movie Aliens 2) I like dragging it out when someone says "blah blah blah Glock was the first polymer blah blah blah..." Man, is it a terrible gun though. The trigger is like a staple gun. I thought I'd try doing steel plates with it...

Am I the only one with a VP70? Its biggest positive feature is its 18 round magazines.
