Why yes and no, man attempting to be an a-hole. To be specific, I was wondering if the firing pin and blowback spring were covered. Not the jamming issue itself.


Not trying to be an a-hole. There is a reason these guns are $150.00 brand new. They are cheaply made and jam up when they are brand new much less 17 years old. To answer your question yes, they will honor their warranty and fix what seems to be the problem if you send it to them. Before, I would break the gun down first, clean it, and make sure to put it back together properly. Also, try a new magazine. 90% of my feeding problems are magazines.

Seemed like it. Consider the statement retracted.

Feeding problems I can handle(when I can disassemble the gun).

Although I haven't tried it, I also know how to modify Hi-Point magazines(clips) to make them feed better.

It really like something broke in there. My initial impression was the firing pin, but I have been thinking on it, and if the firing pin broke upon impact with the primer. Wouldn't the round still discharge anyway? Even with a partial impact? Unless...maybe the first round had partially broken it, just enough to take the power out of it's impact, and then it snapped upon striking the second primer. Because the second round's primer was scratched diagonally and ever so slightly indented. I mean only a small hint of indentation, a skosh. It was nowhere near a full hit from the firing pin.

I am about to give Buck_Rogers method a try, maybe this will get me in there.
