Warthawg Woes, again.

[stevemis]

Those of you might remember my post a week or two ago about problems with a new Para Warthawg. I shipped the pistol back and their gunsmiths allegedly repaired the pistol, but did not bother to test fire it.

Part of the repair involved removing some material from the frame. Specifically, it was the flat portion of the frame which houses the disconnector. There were some deep gouges in the material from some metal pieces left over from manufacturing.

I got the pistol back and it's now a Single Shot POS. I can't feed more than a round or two without a jam, regardless of magazines. The pistol fed perfectly prior to my shipment to Para. I have not changed magazines or ammunition.

I wonder if the jams I'm seeing are somehow related to this material being removed from the frame. The failures are identical -- the cartridge nose is high, and hangs in the chamber. The rear of the cartridge is caught between the part of the frame Para "fixed" and the bottom of the slide.

I don't see any burrs or roughness. I took some pictures with my camera phone at the range, which aren't of the highest quality. I can replicate this very easily and will attach better pictures if needed.

Can anyone tell me if removing too much frame material from the frame top would cause failures like this?

Thanks,

Steve

I'd think their frame work isn't causing you grief. Reviewing your past posts, they DID
"adjust tension on extractor". Will a case slide easily under it? If not, you will bind as you are experiencing.
