    I think I saw an IP here the other day had it for $900, with mag IIRC. Worth it for the mag ;)

    10-rd mags suck in this platform. The well swallows them, and there's little to grab on to. Normally this is no issue (as it is not in most any mag loading handgun), but the 10-rd mag can seemingly "lock" in the well of the Scorpion but not be in position to load a round. I didn't notice the issue shooting from the bench at the range, but I did have this problem a few times when using my Scorpion carbine in an IDPA event while attempting mag changes during stages. By contrast, there was no problem with the longer mags. They slam into place correctly the first time. It's also easy to immediately test if they are securely in place as there's more to grip. I've since stocked up on 20-rd and 30-rd mags for the platform and have retired the 10-rd mags to a drawer.

    Yup, 30-rounders are going for $25/each at the VA and PA shows. I seen 'em at Chantilly and York. Such a shame, since from CZ they're $18.95 on their web site.

    Just got an e-mail that PSA has the Scorpion pistol for $659.99 w/free shipping. I really want the carbine though

    Meh, that's not total butt rape.

    But the inconvenience of having to go to PA or VA all for liberal feelz is really the annoying part. :sad20:

    That's just about worth getting an HQL for, if the pistol is (even close to) as much fun as the carbine is to shoot!

    Yeah, but when you just gotta get away for a few hours, it makes for a good trip.
