toothandnail 275 Posted January 30, 2015 Report Share Posted January 30, 2015 I will be getting a new MKA 1919 Match in next week. From what I saw a month or so ago - Looks like they have incorporated some of the upgrades that we have made to our 3 gun guns. This one supposedly has a few changes since then. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Flatland Shooter 22 Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 (edited) Looked over the ad and I have several observations. First, its labeled as an "MKA 1919" and not the "XN" model. Could this mean some of the parts are compatible with the old pre-XN models? Second, it does not indicate where it was made or if it is 922r compliant. If they want to market it as a competition gun, you better be able to shoot it with large capacity magazines. Nice to see it held together for 6000 hot shotshell rounds but to be taken seriously, it will need someone to supply parts. Bill Reviewed the animation of how to remove the bolt on the "Match" model and see labels that indicate the gun is made by Husan and Eksen in Konya, Turkey.

james lambert 3,059 Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 The mags are not compatible with the original, according to EAA it has a bogus pop up ramp to address ramp failures...The mag pushes it up when inserted does not appear hi cap mags exist at this time its NOT 922 compliant is NOT imported with an adjustable stock No aluminum handguard They think they could add a few upgrades invented here, and call it a (match) gun. I saw the drawings of these (upgrades) a year ago, and concluded that they were not a good idea Quote Link to post Share on other sites
toothandnail 275 Posted February 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Finally got the MKA 1919 match in late today, didn't have time to do a complete comparison . but here's the quick stuff Mags - the have a different follower, I guess it's for the new feed ramp, but the old mags work just fine, at least the 2 we tried did. Barrel - now has 2 lugs to index the new alum front sight, barrel extension is about 3/4" longer than the others, all behind the ejection pin Guide Rod - shorter, now the barrel nut has a long extension that goes through the front cap to thread onto the shorter guide rod, The spring loaded feed ramp seems to work OK , We will most likely pin it in the up position , just to take out the extra moving part that could cause a problem. Have to do some more testing. The lower upper interface is different, do to the feed ramp, different hammer, trigger feel is about the same, didn't have time to check the pull weight. that's about all I can think of, had too many guys coming in the shop today to get much more in depth.

toothandnail 275 Posted February 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Metal spring loaded feed ramp, new 5 rnd mag Retracted Feed ramps with a "old style" 23 rnd mag Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flatland Shooter 22 Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 So do any of the parts also fit XN and pre-XN guns or is it something all new? In the one pictured, have you replaced the internals with USA made parts? Drop in or a lot of fitting required? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AR-12 Shotgun 16 Posted February 26, 2015 Report Share Posted February 26, 2015 Do they run out of the box or is there a similar break in period? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In the one pictured, have you replaced the internals with USA made parts? Drop in or a lot of fitting required? Thanks. This one is 100% factory, except for the forend, and 23 rnd mag. The barrel extension is longer, therefore the upper is bored deeper. So neither of those items will interchange. The locking block and carrier are also different, looks to be a better design. I haven't tried the bolt & carrier in an XN, but it looks like it would interchange. The carrier is one piece, similar to what we've been doing for almost a year. The lower is the same except for the front where the spring loaded feed ramp is - they've added about 1/4-3/8" to the front of the magwell to allow for the mechanism. It's a pretty simple design, should hold up well. But I think I'll 'pin' mine up with a small bolt for competition(the less moving parts the better) The bolt handle is MUCH better, but still on the small side for my preferences. Do they run out of the box or is there a similar break in period? This one was a factory test model and had been fired , don't know how much, so I can't say for sure how a NIB one will run.

Flatland Shooter 22 Posted February 27, 2015 Report Share Posted February 27, 2015 That one round put off so much smoke in the video that I thought you even slipped in a black powder shell. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
