    This was the first ammo I purchased to shoot in my very first 10mm. Haven't shot any since but threw on a box with a PSA order. Just too cheap to not! I know it's weak but looks good so I will test it again.


Yeah, that's what I did with an order, although I've tried PPU before (very underpowered, brass was too soft; chamber a cartridge more than once and get significant set-back; fired cases with cracks....Very poor quality stuff, but it did go bang).

BUT....This last box.  It seemed to have significantly more power, and fired brass appeared to be in as pristine a condition as any I've seen.  I'm hoping that things have changed for the better with this brand, but I can't find any of it cheap enough in my locale to warrant further purchase.--Patrice

Hhmmm....No, but I found out about this forum through perusing GT's 10mm subforum. [I requested to be removed from their membership (& they complied...permanently banned) after they prohibited any threads about the M.O. in their political subforum.  I kinda miss the place, but I just couldn't see a blanket prohibition of topic/thread in a "political forum."]--Patrice

10mm semi-auto handguns / Re: Witness problems

I have owned 3 EAA Witness 10mm full size, two in wonderfinish, and one blued. I have convinced many friends to purchase them as well. We all experience the same problem. Jams....( ???)....The round seems to catch on the case as it enters the barrel....Stronger mag springs, 22 pound recoil springs, polished the feed ramp, smoothed out the lip on the breech. They still jam almost two times each magazine. It was a complete embarrassment the last time I did my gun qualification for duty. It jammed 7 times during my gun qualification.

Hhmmm....At the risk of sounding impudent, why do you convince friends to buy these pistols that have all experienced the same problem jams?--Patrice  ::)
