How do you know how many people are reporting feeding issues directly to Novritsch?

Nobody does, but I can see exactly how many report them on the SSG24, SSP1, SXX23 user groups

How do you know that it's an easy fix if you haven't had to do it?

Because there are now about 10 video's out by people including Novritch on how to notch the feed lips to fix issue and everyone who's done it says it works.

How do you know how many people have bought an SSX-23?

Because Novritch showed the  piles of SSX boxes in his warehouse and people post order numbers which are sequential

How do you know what his support is like for problem guns if you don't have a problem gun?

Cos I've used them several times for my other guns and for issues around BAC v UKARA

Took it out for a game, great range and accuracy (and somehow the hop was already tuned for .30s but that's irrelevant).

Quite quiet even without the suppressor.

Got one double feed but that was me not knowing how MK23s work. Will still mod the feed lips.

Just one thing, it's a shame that the DTD holster doesn't allow you to holster the gun while cocked (it's the reason why I got the double feed).

Looking forward to see it perform in a woodland field as today it was a cqb day. + I'm getting my hands on a genuine TM suppressor next week, a teammate has one lying around because he broke the gun but kept the can (I'll have 2 suppressors, which may lead to a 2nd mk23 and a carbine kit if I feel stupid enough).

Overall I'm impressed :)

 
Small update.

Samurai's suppressor has been mounted and, with great disappointment, the barrel thread is off to the right and slightly pointing upwards. Bbs hit the bottom left part of the suppressor hole.

Will check again with the genuine TM can, but I suspect it's not gonna change anything.

Will send CS a message anyway and see if I can bodge something up for Sunday's game.

I'll have to change my motto from "It's never the gun!"

to "It's never the gun except when it's a Novritsch one."

Of course, Novritsch stuff is perfect and whoever complains about it is just a crybaby.

/s

Since we're here, who makes a good aftermarket mk23 barrel with a straight thread? Just in case Nov's support tells me to get better eyes :P

 
I've had one of these for a few weeks (yet to skirmish). Overall impressed with how it shoots (albeit just in my 40M garden), the slide and sights are very appealing. My only real gripe is you do get double-feeds and jams using Novristch mags but I've got two stti mags and they feed perfectly - regardless of how you pull the trigger! So it'd be nice if he sent replacement feed lips gratis.

 
Nov's support is sending me a replacement outer barrel, for once they're being kind even if the evidence I provided didn't really show the issue :)

[SIZE=12pt]Added this to his video. “Nice to see what is needed but to be honest the whole sales pitch of a gun that has already been upgraded, this should not be needed. Will you be sending out the improved part free of charge to the the people that have already purchased the guns? First outing with my SSX23 today and gave up trying to use it, double fed every shot.[/SIZE] “

 
Replacement barrel has been mounted, it's straight (tested with both Samurai's suppressor and genuine TM one) and for some reason it's half a mm longer than the stock one, which is odd as they most likely come from the same mold.

Satisfied with Nov's customer support so far.

Agree, free updated feed lips would have been top notch customer service but I picked up a few ASG ones for £4 each and have fitted them to the Nov mags. Feeds like a dream now and I'm very happy with the package overall.
