Well, my 2 tone K100 finally got here. A loong 10 day (expedited?.....
) journey from Marstar to my hot little hands.
My first reaction to it, was this is an interesting piece of kit. Must have played with the slide watching the barrel rotate for a good 10 minutes
. It feels good in my hands, although a bit top heavy when empty. That was most noticable when you put it down with no mag in it. With the safety off and no mag, the butt sticks up in the air a bit. With the safety on it sits level.
The DA trigger pull was a bit on the heavy side, but smooth all the way back. SA the trigger has some travel in her, but once I learned where the reset point was I had no problems. Accuracy was excellent, even in DA. Actually, I was a better shot using DA on the first shot. Bang on, every time. Follow up shots leaned left
. As my Nork does the same, I know it's me
.
The mags were a bit of a challenge. All had 10th round issues. With the two that came with the pistol, I had to grind off the back of the follower a bit so the 10th round would fit in easier. They are pinned with a metal block, spot welded to the mag body. The aftermarket ones are blocked with dents in the body. I had to grind the followers to fit the dents better. All worked flawlessly afterwards.
Disassembly was an interesting experience. Read the book, checked web sites, sweared a lot
. The effin' slide didn't wanna come off! You almost need 3 hands to do it. One to hold the pistol, one to grasp the guard and pull it forward and down (and then hold it there) another one to pull the slide back and manipulate it up.....if you don't pull down right on the guard, the slide won't go all the way back.....Aaarrrrgh
. More practice stripping it will be needed
.
All in all, a very nice pistol. Money well spent in my books. Now I just need a holster for it (no cool leather ones at Marstar
).
