Hi everyone, I would like to discuss the problem of a poorly operating firing pin safety on CZ P10. Please watch the attached video with test I did. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hk6lAJWKeks In my opinion, the firing pin safety in CZ P10 does not meet its purpose. I couldn't achieve a similar effect in the glock 17 gen 4 pistol and to clarify I tried it dozens of times. In this case, the firing pin safety ALWAYS blocked the firing pin from hitting the primer. I have P10 C and P10 C OR - both with the same issue so I ask my friends with P10 models on Facebook to do this test. Feedback was various , on some pistols have this issue and some not (more of them has that problem) Maybe test is wrong because frame is seperated from slide so firing pin safety is not working under normal conditions but again, why with glock its is impossible and firing safety fulfills its function and with CZ P10 is not. Maybe Tim could pickup this problem in one of his videos ?

I’m just curious to hear what classic firearms any of you have gone out of your way to upgrade with “modern“ features rather than leaving it be in favor for a newer off the shelf gun. (I recognize this question may be considered blasphemy to the many of the pure history and collector aficionados out there.)

I recently pieced together a nice 11.5" AR pistol to host my first 5.56 suppressor (YHM Turbo K) and act as my one quality go-to personal defense gun. However, too much time at home social-distancing led me down the dark rabbit hole of terminal ballistics research. As a result, I decided to invest in some 62gr speer gold dot after learning about its performance out of shorter barrels compared to the standard m193 I usually stock up on. I thankfully got lucky on a pretty good deal for 1,500 rounds of it off GunBroker, but came to the realization that it ultimately would be more practical to invest in a nice bullpup that may cost more upfront, but would allow me to save on viable defense ammo for it. This is of course because of the benefit of increased bullet velocity to overall length ratio that bullpups afford compared to AR's and other traditional carbine layouts. I've always loved the Steyr AUG's design and would love to get one one day, but am mulling over whether I could justify it as a good bullpup to invest in to serve in a primary defense role when there are better out-of-the box options on the market. I'd love if MAC could do a video about what he thinks it would take to modernize the AUG to be a competitive modern defense gun option (not as a collector item) against the IWI X95, Kel Tec RDB, Desert Tech MDRx, or even non-bullpup options. Additionally, it would be great to see a video about how best to suppress an AUG (I'm guessing an OSS can is the way to go). At this point I'd feel comfortable switching from my 11.5 AR to a Steyr AUG A3M1 only after getting the follow on aftermarket items : Geissele Trigger Pack (rumor is it was finally patented in March 2020) Steyr 1/28" Threaded Barrel (This may have quietly been added as standard in the US market) Steyr Suppressor gas plug Corvus Defensio brass deflector Corvus Defensio Wrap around M-Lok Handguard Also, possibly the Corvus Defensio charging handle & bolt catch However, the cost of adding all these aftermarket items may just be dumb route to take instead of just going with a more modern design. BTW, if I went with the latter I'd probably go with the MDRx-SE at this point. I'm curious to hear other people's thoughts on this. Especially from those who have owned one or more of these bullpups. Thanks
