Has anyone tried the AKV-9 magazines from PSA in their Scorpions?

I ordered a couple. Figured they were worth a try for the price. They fit and release fine. I haven’t yet loaded and fired yet.
Gotta get one! It's about as much fun as you can have at the range with your pants on!

The CZ Scorpion is more fun than an AR to me
Also, if you're looking to buy an AR, skip that part and just PM Clandestine and figure out when his next class is gonna be, and go build your own. Much better result, often for less spend.

finally got out to shoot this rifle.
Tons of fun. The irons were a little off bit ill get it sighted in better when I have more time. The magazines are so easy and fast to load. Just like pmags.
HBI trigger spring makes a big difference in the trigger feel. Biggest problem I had was how fast you can go through ammo
If anyone is able to find a good deal on one of these, id certainly recommend. Had a lot of the feel of an AR but with less of a recoil, (not that an AR has much recoil) and less ammo cost per round.
Might be a good intro to an AR for some folks that are unsure but a .22 will bore them.
I think im going to get a vortex spitfire 1x or a sig romeo 5 on here soon.

Interesting that your iron sights are off - CZ is usually quite good in that regard. I know my factory sights were dead-on accurate.
I added an Aimpoint red dot optic to mine, and it absolutely drives nails at 50yds.
Love the Scorpion!

PS: did you install the trigger spring yourself? Was your trigger pack welded? I know mine is, and I have some apprehension about drilling out the weld myself to install a trigger spring I picked up shortly after I bought the carbine.

Get the Sig Romeo 5, they are about $125 on Ebay. I have 6 of them. The auto on/off feature is awesome. As soon as you pick it up it's already on and even if it stayed on permanently the batteries have 40,000 hours of life. They come with a high and low mount. The caps double as an adjustment tool and they look nice. There was a review on YouTube where a guy froze it and them later shot it with a shotgun, it still worked and held zero.
Removing the weld is simple. HBI sells a drill kit but you can use any drill bit really. I have an extra trigger pack that is not welded with the spring kit in it already. It's for sale if you're interested. It's basically brand new. PM me if interested.

I bought mine used, so maybe that's why they might have been off? Me and my uncle both shot it and it was pulling to the right and high for both of us. nothing some adjustment cant fix though
. We didn't have a lot of time or rounds so I couldn't get it fully sighted in. My scorpion was built in 2018, so I didn't have the welded trigger pack. Although the screw was stripped, so we ended up drilling it out and adding another screw.
I wouldn't have felt comfortable doing it myself but i'm not exactly Mr. precision either, My FIL or uncle on the other hand would have had me covered there

my only gripe was I had trouble putting the safety into safe easily, I felt like I needed to almost remove my hand from the grip and turn the rifle to do so.
The AK style selector is awesome. It's flat so it doesn't dig like the factory selector and you can manipulate it very easily with your trigger finger, if you're a righty. I really like mine.

I got some. They seem to fit well. We were on the backorder list at Brownells for a while waiting for the black windowed CZ mags, which were supposed to be better than the clear mags. We cancelled the ordered and got the PSA mags. My buddy scraped the PSA mag a bit, and said it had poly glass in it, or something and should be fine. They fit well, and look great, IMHO. I just need to get out and shoot this thing. Every time I had available to go to the range, it snowed or rained,lol.

One of the beautiful things about the Scorpion that I haven't read on this thread (or I missed it - oops) is that it is easily configured for a left-handed shooter (which I am, and was a big selling point for me). I swapped the safety on the left side and put the charging handle on the right, and it's been fantastic. Whenever I let anyone else shoot it, the right-side safety digs into their finger and they complain. I tell them to buy their own Scorpion then.

there is a button I believe. fold the stock and behind it, push the button in and slide up. It should come off.

replacement trigger spring smaller than original
When installing the aftermarket trigger spring be sure the longer spring tab leans toward the trigger not the housing wall. It can be put in leaning toward the wall and will hang up on the trigger reset.
