First time Draco problems :/

[RBJ13]

I hope this is in the right section, I figured the AK system is technically a long gun thing. But it is classified as a pistol.

So I took my new CAI Draco AK pistol out for my first time shooting it today and found a problem...or two.

When I went to rack the first round into the chamber, the bolt assembly did not close all the way. I had to pound the thing forward to get it into place. Upon getting the bolt forward I could fire...after which the same problem would occur for the next round.

Also, the trigger did not seem to be resetting. Any advice, or does anyone know if this is a common thing?

Maybe the mag ,does it go forward easily without the mag ?

Yeah it goes fine when unloaded. But I did test that in a way by loading one round into it with no magazine...still didn't work correctly. I was a bit confused

I have seen reviews on CAI WASR's that say check the action for shavings if it is a milled receiver. I don't know if this is an issue on the DRACO pistols or not but it's worth looking into.

Well My Draco is a mean MFer and it runs great.... do you have a military mag or plastic? Maybe you got a bad apple... I wouldnt judge one tho like I said I ran mine hard!

Check the chamber to make sure that Century didn't leave you a present there. (Like a piece of shell casing, or a metal shaving) Check the chamber for burrs or sharp spots that might be causing the round to hang up.
