    The primers we use are hard milspec Berdan primers. A high primer is a possibility, but this is the first we've heard of it. Perhaps give the SKS firing pin channel a thorough cleaning (remove the firing pin) and let us know if it happens again.

    Just a head's up; order two Murray's pins; with the clearance required for the spring, the pin is built more lightly and breakage is not uncommon.

    With Berdan Primers, this brass is likely not conveniently for the home loader?

    It is steel cased not brass. The Berdan primers won’t be an issue

    a double fire can be cause by not releasing the trigger when firing as well, if you keep some pressure on it while it goes off it'll go again quick, happened to me once at the range...i was trying to see if i could feel the reset point...but i knew it wasn't a gun issue and has been fine since, just gotta be squeeze release, squeeze release not holding pressure.....p.s. i hope Canam can make a ton of this stuff, everywhere GTA is dry......

    While only a very small percentage of our customers had issues, we are always looking to improve our product quality and customer service.

    This weeks batch checks out and I have posted 14,000 rounds for sale.

    Thanks,

    Missed out on this batch but checking my email more often now so I don't miss out on the next batch.

    I'm still interested in a case. I've been checking here and my email for alerts.

    We got a box of this a couple months ago and haven't had any issues with it so far, after a couple hundred rounds fired. Will be ordering more.
