fwiw i don't think there is anything intriniscally wrong with them , it was just a bad one that went pop which as no one was really hurt wasn't the end of the world , but the handling of the problem by the manufacture was shockingly bad to say the least and as a result i won't ever spend any of my money with them (not that i'm really into black guns tbh)
A little harsh...

...I hear he also has a nice range of reloading components for sale, even some in 9mm

I take it thats free-hand shooting? At 25m benched with a red-dot you should expect sub 1" and with a scope they should be clover-leafing

Ironic, I was being...

100% behind you - I vote with my wallet too - best way to avoid feeding idiots as that way they may become extinct

The anomaly that he is against using 9mm reloads but sells all the 9mm loading gear was the point I was getting it...a nice case of double standards when folks till balances are directly affected

Just to be clear it was shooting factory ammo (verified by my RCO) when it blew and here we are almost a year later and it's still not sorted. Had to be returned (yet again) as SGC sent it back with most of the bolt assembly missing.

Doesn't really inspire confidence in quality control or attention to detail does it.
