New KRISS CRB FTF

Haven't fired mine yet... Just bought it yesterday... All this negative feedback is starting to worry me just a bit, and I am hoping I did the right thing going with this setup... I am praying mine fires well... Anyone running the Federal 230gr ammo they recommend with any success???

Update:

I had to send mine back to get it looked at because of the continued light primer strikes. I did get it back last fall after the weak hammer spring was replaced. I haven't had an issue since then. In fact it will eat anything and not even hiccup. I am loving it!

Nice to hear.

Did the new bolt solve the Issue? I have tried 4 kinds of ammo and I get 1-2 FTF per 10rd Mag as I am in Cali. I have only had 2 trips to the range with it and it has had many FTFs and the bullet button fell off, so I need to re-glue the bullet button. Not confidence inspiring.

Have you tried different Glock 21 mags?

I have 3 different Glock 21 mags all new at same time as Kriss purchase. Ran different ammo each one. All 230gr ammo new casing no reload brass, no steel. They wouldn't eject and the bolt would already cycle... It's like the action is too fast, maybe em cause the spring is brand new?

One small thing that might help with the recoil spring is to lock the bolt back and leave it for a week or two. That seems to soften them up a bit. Leave the magazines loaded too.

Good Luck with it, my SDP has been running fine.

I bought my SDP in 2012  it had the light primer strike issue as well. Called Kriss and they had me send back  the upper and the bolt. They replaced both with new upgraded parts. The FTF issue went away for awhile then came back. Being the mechanical fella that I am, I firmly believe that the firing pin spring IS absorbing too much of the hammers energy creating the issue. I'm going to try to call Kriss and see if they offer a lighter spring for it. If not I'll get a standard replacement  just in case then shorten the one I have and test it. Except for this issue the gun has been a great shooter and a heck of a lot of fun.

I took my CRB to the range today that i received as a trade, 230 gr fmj light primer strikes almost every other round. It is an early model, mid 600 serial number with all original parts. Not happy about this.

I contacted KRISS this morning, they will look at it at a rate of $120 an hour plus parts. Lovely. I wonder if any other company would charge me to for this. I am not sure if I even want to send it in or just sell it to someone who will. Would any of you send it in? At this point I am not sure if it is worth the cost.
