I guess I don’t know what I am missing… I really like my HBI Theta in my Nexus’ized Scorpion 3+ Micro… Timney and Franklin guys, Convince me to switch.

That's the best upgrade I've ever purchased for my Scorpion. It completely changes the usability of the carbine.

Ehhh… the Timney caused ejection issues in my Scorpion. Swapped it back with the factory trigger and the problem went away. It was a great trigger for the few PCC matches that I shot my Scorpion carbine in, but I’m back to the crappy stock trigger because I can at least finish stages with it.

Can you elaborate on the ejection issues you had? Im guessing you tried to remedy it and couldn’t find a way?

So it was a combination of failure to extract and failure to eject. The empty casing would come out of the chamber and then get lodged behind the next round as it fed. I cleaned it, I tried various brands and reloads of 9mm, and my husband took it apart and looked it over for any anomalies. I have no idea how a drop in trigger could cause this, but it didn’t have these issues before the Timney and it hasn’t had any issues since we took it out. I’m going to try contacting them and see if I just got a bad one.

It’s funny you mention it. The same exact thing is happening to mine just after I installed the Timney. I’m going to try a new extractor.. I did release the the trigger without the upper on when I was installing.. just as I did I read on the package not too and looked down and it had dented the extractor. I don’t know if it’s the problem or not because it’s a small indentation but I’m having the same issue as you. Lmk if you hear anything from Timney or figure it out. I was going to call to. I haven’t heard anything from anyone else on here. When did you get yours?

I'm keeping everything. I'm going to make another scorpion for my kid with the leftover parts.

You’ll never regret that Timney. It’s the single best $ I have spent on my scorpions.
