Hellpup Hellpup Hellpup Here we will not go into the tech- nical details of the guns as we have published those earlier in FRAG OUT! Magazine. We will focus on our im- pressions after about 2000 rounds. Let's get back to the start, be- cause our adventure with Hellpup had some tough beginnings. Rifle has had a problem with the trigger, that was not resetting properly de- spite that we do not modified it in any mysterious way. It just had ten- dency to jam in complete random way: sometimes worked as it sup- posed to work, sometimes jammed after few shots and sometimes jam at every shot. Little bit heartbroken, bit pissed, we've reported that to the manufacturer. We have to admit, that PAC surprised us positively – they scheduled the date, and they arrived themselves to take firearm to service, so door-to-door. As it turned out later, our Helll- pup comes from first production batch and it was afflicted by "child- hood diseases". It happens, but ultimately we were given this gun to test it thor- oughly and to detect its faults and somehow contribute to its develop- ment. Backing up to the problem with the trigger, it turned out that blank- ing tool from the press that is re- sponsible for making hole for trigger itself, is inaccurate and cuts out too small hole. Weapon was repaired and delivered back. It took 10 days and I have to admit that I have not found that fast customer service in any other workshop. From that mo- ment, trigger worked perfectly fine, until we found out that modified Hellpup is much more fun that "raw" In last weeks it was quite loud about Polish Pioneer Arms Corp. be- cause of one American YouTube guy, who rated they rifles very critical. We have our own experiences with this weapon, and we will not argue with colleagues from the other side of Big Pond. And we are here not make the manufacturer happy. We have used PAC AK's quite intensively through- out couple of months (Hellpup more, because somehow it suits us more), so we can rate it by ourselves. We will not relate to someone's judg- ment riposte, claims and controver- sies. FIREARMS
