BigTinVA Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Not me. CCI's are all I run. Are you using lighter springs in your Glock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CocoBolo Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 I use them in my Open, Limited, Production, and Single Stack no issues. Lightest main spring is 15lb in CZ75B. These days you use what you can get. I prefer Federal or Winchester. CCI's are harder, I use them by preference in Open as Federals punch thru CCI does not even flatten out.

mike4045 Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Got in 10k, no problem so far. I have loaded all and shot about 5k thru my Glock. I have a Vanek trigger in my main gun, no problems setting them off. I never used CCI before the shortage. Now I use what I can find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1SOW Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 (edited) My 75B with light Wolff springs needs Federals to fire reliably. Edited September 1, 2009 by 1SOW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Smith Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 It's possible that they are not seating fully. Check your seating depth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N2O5O Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 Switched to the stock striker spring, little heavier on the pull but fixed the problem for shure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N2O5O Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 I know this has just probably been beat to death, but what kind of pull weight is being had with the vanek classic triggers, and are they 100% relaible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the duck of death Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 I cut 7 coils off the OEM firing pin spring and lighten the firing pin. 100% reliability w/CCI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

contactcole Posted September 10, 2009 Share Posted September 10, 2009 Switched to the stock striker spring, little heavier on the pull but fixed the problem for shure. I had light hits with my Glock only with CCI primers, old white/red box. Took 2-3 hits. Stock springs. Only primer that had this issue. I've since put Wolff 6lb striker springs in my Glock for harder hits. Used up those CCIs. New blue box don't have issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
