Gun and gear reviews Kral Arms KR22 Tactical Review - Dramatic Quality Control Issues

https://youtu.be/VNu3HO-gNMU

In a bit of a unique situation, I ended up with two of these guns, which allowed me to compare them. And wow are there quality control differences.

I actually think this would be an incredible design, if they put more money into QC and materials. Make this a $500-600 gun with aluminum receivers and it would likely be a lot better.

I just won one of these from a sticker draw and brought it out for the first time today. Every mag had a light strike at the last round and was near impossible to get it out while trying to hold the bolt open. To make things worse, I accidentally dropped the bolt while trying to take the round out and the fucking thing fired. It looks like the extractor claw itself hit the rim hard enough to fire. It happened another 3 times on the mags after it (I wanted to see if it was repeatable). Glad I kept it pointed in a safe direction but that's it for me. Not worth the danger and headache. Just buy a 10/22... Idek what to do with it. I don't want to sell it and doubt the store will do anything for a free/giveaway rifle. Ugh. Avoid like the plague and I ever see one being shot at the range idk if I'd stay LOL
