Ok, the clutch is done so here are the pictures and a range report:
I know the header says "pistol" but it's obviously been morphed. I used the original flash hider and welded a tube to it to make a barrel extension. That was threaded on then plug welded to the barrel from underneath to get it to the legal length for a stock. I intend to form 1 it in the future, thus the ca93 pistol as a starting point rather than the regular ca93 rifle.
Took it to the range today along with 60 rounds of wolf black box 55g 223 ammo. It was a bolt action the entire time. I cleaned the bolt group before going out but the barrel looked good so i didn't worry about cleaning it. Probably my main mistake. Every round for the first forty extracted but seemed to short-stroke and hung on to the spent case. After that, i could get two rounds in a row with the third jamming in the same way. In the last 20 rounds, i got two strings of five rounds each before a jam, followed by more two round strings. I came home and cleaned the snot out of the chamber and am hoping that, along with an ammo change, takes care of the problem. fingers crossed.
