Templar failure

About 200 rounds through. Brass deflector blasted off at the same time as what looks like the piston shot out the front. First I've heard or seen this happen with a Templar, but I'm not thrilled.

Awaiting word from customer service. I don't want to say it, cause I really enjoy the Templar for what it is, but I should have just gone with the Bren 2.

(aside from this I enjoy the thing... Hoping I'm just the unlucky fluke.)

Reason #134 I'll never jump on the cdn made 180 clone fad.

I'll stick to my overpriced, but reliable, Swiss bricks thankyouverymuch.

yep, unless, you buy it and replace most of the innards. I did that with my WK190C Gen 2
