Any center fire pistol on which the firing pin breaks after rounds of dry fire was defective. I have competition pistols with stock firing pins that have been dry fired MANY thousands of time without a problem.
The air and pellet gun line included the models: 77A, 78G, 79G and 80G. Umarex USA, Inc. Unfortunately, we are unable to predict the value of handguns after they are shipped from the factory. You may wish to reference one of the many books written on the value of handguns at your local bookstore or library. Every year, we receive a significant number of requests for donations, sponsorships and product support for various industry-related events, initiatives and organizations.
Because of the sheer volume of requests that we receive, we are only able to support a small number of these programs. Mount a target with a clearly visible aiming point downrange at the desired zeroing distance.
To determine the required direction of rotation, refer to the Laser Adjustment Table on page 37 of the owner's user manual. Fire a 3-round shot group and note the center of the shot group relative to the target aiming point. To determine the required direction of rotation, refer to the Shot Group Movement column in the Laser Adjustment Table on page 37 of the owner's user manual.
Fire another 3-round shot group to confirm zero. Repeat these steps until the shot group falls within an acceptable radius around the target aim point. To determine the required direction of rotation, refer to the Laser Adjustment Table on page 46 of the owner's user manual. You will begin to think more of your weapon as you fire it.
The only thing negative I found when I first started firing it was the long trigger pull and the strong spring at the release of the mechanism when it fires. You will adjust….. George, Thanks for posting on your experiences.
Every mass produced product eventually has a dud, and unfortunately you got one. We had a similar experience with our Benelli M1 Super 90 Entry shotguns. It is a violation of Federal law to do so. I was trained to keep my trigger finger off the trigger until ready to fire. I have to press the slide eject button to insert a mag, I did not notice this in teh gun shop is this normal?
Jack, if you are having to press the magazine release button just to insert a magazine then something is wrong. You should be able to insert a magazine without any other function. We have the same issue with my mother-in-laws bodyguard. Just bought it for Christmas. The mag will slide in about halfway and stop. You must bust the mag release to allow it to slide completely in place. I was just about to post saying my BG had the same issue with the mag lever having to be pressed to insert the mag, but I think my issue is that I am used to how effortless my Glock 31 mag slides in.
On the BG, give the mag a good firm push and it should glide right in there with no need to press the release lever. Sean, thanks for the information. This will hopefully solve the other posters problems. Great to know! I had the magazine insert issue. I just took an empty magazine and racked it in and out …say 30 times.
Problem solved. When I first gut mine the magazine was difficult to get in but after doing it many times the catch seems to be broken in. It slides right in now. No way! I bought this little beauty for my wife to carry. It shoots great and operates good.
Is there a fix for this or is it normal? Bruce, The slide should lock back when the last round is fired. Watch your wife as she shoots, and see where her hands are on the pistol. It sounds like a hand or finger is gripping the frame next to the slide lock lever, causing the lever to be depressed. So when the last round is fired, the lever is depressed allowing the slide to go forward.
I will do that but will have an armourer look at it anyway. Better safe than sorry. Thanks for the info. I followed the stretched spring advice…noticing that any FTF was on my last round.
Upon disassembly of the mag, I found the rectangular shaped spring had two coils interlocked, effectively shortening the spring. That must have been a factory assembly issue. So I corrected it and stretched it. Thanks for the advice. I had an issue with reassembling the pistol. After several tries, I found the issue. Gun is used by my wife for concealed carry. I took her to the range for training with TMJ plus four defensive ammunition types. Hi everyone, I bought a non laser Bodyguard for my wife as a CCW and she loves it with one exception, The slide is almost impossible to rack even after several hundred rounds being fired through it.
Instead of racking the slide with a thumb and forefinger of your weak hand, place your palm over the entire slide weak hand and push towards the rear of the gun, while your strong hand pushes from the butt of the gun towards the muzzle. Thanks for the tip. I can now easily rack the slide using myleft thumb and forefinger when using them to hold the slide and then using my right hand to push gun forward. It makes a huge difference. After firing rounds through my BG the webbing between my finger and thumb was red and sore.
Any suggestions? Sometimes gripping a pistol lower allows more upward recoil which can then cause the irritation you describe. That could result in more movement during shooting. I am female, and my son bought me this gun after we got our concealed carry license this past year. One of my other guns, a Walther PK. It makes me sad because I love the size and laser feature, but that trigger pull length is just way too long for me!! Karol I must agree. This can be good and bad.
The good is it helps prevent negligent discharges making the shooter pull the trigger longer and more deliberately. The bad is a really long, and often heavier trigger pull.
I work a detective assignment, so I wear business attire, and I still carry it. However… The trigger pull is long. I liked that, so that it would reduce the chance of an AD in my pocket. For a new shooter, this would make this pistol difficult to control.
This is not a casual take-to-the-range and shoot all day gun. I usually shoot a box of 50, oil, and carry. I have several hundred rounds through the weapon.
Never had a problem until… I was on my LEO range qualifying with this weapon. I malfunctioned and after a tap-rack drill, I was back in service. Malfunctioned a second time, same outcome. Malfunctioned a third time in the same course of fire. Tap-rack, nothing. Dropped the mag, worked the slide, noticed that the slide would not fully come all the way back, so the pistol was not chambering a new round. Because the slide would not come all the way back, I could not disassemble the weapon and had to send it back, which I did recently.
No matter what the fix, this gives me cause for concern and gives me less confidence in this gun. This gun is meant as a last resort in a bad situation. It needs to work! I get that with semi-autos, sometimes stuff happens. I have a lot of friends who carry the Ruger LCP and have had no problems at all. Great points Eddie. I have fired about rounds through mine with no problems and very good accuracy — though the sights need to be updated.
To minimize this happening, before I insert the clip I take a can of Rem oil and shoot it down into the clip and let it flow downwards over all the shells I inserted. It dries very quickly and leaves a residual lubricant film.
I do the same to the gun chamber and down the barrel letting it flow out the barrel. Then let it dry for about 2 minutes Do that and not even the cheap ammo will bind. Never ever spray a lube in the mag or on cartridges.
Remoil and Wd 40 are penetrants and ate very poor lubes. Use clp or what they suggest. Remoil and wd 40 will also attack primers and will gain entry into the powder. I want to save your life. Sisstraining dot com. Police Armorer and instructor. My husband decided to lay this away for me as my CCW. On the LCP, once the magazine is removed it cannot. Just curious. I had the Ruger. Long trigger pull. I got rid of it. Unlike the Glock. Especially the slide not locking after last round that is a no go for me.
Anyone else had this experience and if so what was the fix? The fix is to leave the safety off while carrying. With the long, heavy trigger pull the safety is really unnecessary. I agree- I hate carry pistol safeties that you have to manipulate in a potentially stressful situation. Anyhow, I would leave off a safety especially one like that and let my finger be the safety.
Agreed Triggerpuller! For a serious shooter, and self-defense concealed carrier, an external safety in my opinion is unnecessary.
