    PWS MK214

    Re: PWS MK214 Hi DMack, I brought the MK216 in and my good man at the local store said the rifle is "half cycling", the bolt goes back far enough to eject the spent round but not far enough to fully get behind the next bullet in the magazine. This makes complete sense, and explains why the...

    Re: PWS MK214 Hi DMack, I have no plans on making any modifications to the tool, that’s PWS's job. I too noticed the grease at the head, but thought since they tested it, all’s good. I did clean the rifle, but didn’t go after it as aggressively as you mentioned, certainly something to try...

    PWS MK214

    Re: PWS MK214 Hi DMack, Thanks for the reviews on the MK214. I am looking at the MK216 because of the threaded barrel. I had been told the rifle cannot be fully stripped down if the suppressor is attached. Is that true? I have also been told there is no difference in accuracy between the two...
