- This is just a quick video showing you my way of taking down and re-assembling the 2017 Volquartsen Scorpion.
I had a few issues when I first got the Pistol, so hopefully this will help someone out there. :)
this is with out a doubt the best video on how to put the Scorpion of this model back together. I could not have done it without this video. Thanks for sharing.
Bless you for this video. For the price of this pistol the lack of information supplied is ridiculous.
Many thanks again!
I think u have the best video of scorpion on how to assemble and reassemble in youtube .
Cheers Deo Rai! I am glad this has helped you.
Thank you for this video. I know exactly the problem and unfortunately in other videos it is not explained so well. I tried it now 3x in a row and it works this way without problems!
Fantastic, I’m glad this video helped 👍🏻
Beautiful gun, I have two victories and would like to add the scorpion to my 22lr collection, but with a $1300. price tag, I'll like my victories even more. Thanks, Fred14
Just put about 1000 rounds through mine. Seems like a great pistol. First time cleaning. Thanks for the video. Went together no problem.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I thought I was going mad, not being able to put my scorpion back together.
Sir…THANK YOU very much for making my day !!!
Every time I strip mine down to clean I have to come back to this vid to remember what to do to get it back to go pew-pew-pew again.
Thank you my friend.
Great! Thank you!!! Volquartsen’s Manual is a beyond a joke. Funny they call it an “owners manual” when it has absolutely no info about the firearm. Only general safety info. Meanwhile you need a college degree to figure out how to take down and put back together this gun. CHEERS MATE! You saved me!!!
Darren Bergmann An American could strip this gun down and put it back together in the dark!
Thank you, your video really helped me. Love the gun, but most frustrating in assembly.
Thank you so much! This made it super easy to re-assemble.
Thanks Gary Au, I am glad it helped :)
Your a dead set fu€¥Ind legend. Just picked up my scorpion yesterday from Cleavers in QLD and had no idea how to pull it down to clean. What a gun , but as you mentioned limited info on maintenance. Thanks again have a great Xmas.
Awesome!! I am glad this helped as I know the pain :).. Merry Christmas to you also.. Cheers
J B hi mate, how are you liking the gun a year on? Looking at getting one of these when my pta comes back, worth the $ ? My next choice was the ruger.
Cheers mate
cheers, mate. this was an excellent video and helped a great deal.
You are a champion, worth your weight in gold. If you ever shoot out of Wingham lunch and beers are on me.
Im glad it helped you out William as i know it did my head in at the start. Happy Shooting and if I am ever down that way Im always up for a day of shooting followed by Beers. Cheers.
@@JB-tz9nv 2 years later and I came back for the video, you are still a champion, and as I said before, if you are at wingham, lunch and beers on me.
When I think how much my Scorpion cost you would think they would of given you some information!!! Great pistol though
Very true
Great video! Very clear.
Thanks Charles. :) Happy shooting, Cheers
Great video. Well done.
Thank you :)
Thank you for this
Why would they design this like a Ruger mark series? ( not the mk4 ) but such a pain to reassemble .. great quality firearm, just not liking the field strip process.. thanks for the video though :)
Because this is the 2nd best gun design ever. The legend goes that Bill Ruger was a crossroads at midnight and he was approached by a man in black who offered to sell him the plans to the best gun the world has ever known in exchange for his soul. Now Bill didn't have none of that and refused, but to tempt him the man left Bill with the plans for the 2nd best gun design ever, and it's a grand gun but as everyone who has ever tried to reassemble one knows, the devil is inside these guns, that aside it still is the 2nd best gun in the world, so who wouldn't copy one that good.
Thank you for this tutorial. I've always heard that one should not dry fire a rimfire firearm. Is that not true, or is there something different about this pistol's design, that makes it acceptable to do?
Hi Trae thank you for your message, yes this is still true so I would not go dry firing any rimfire pistol for practice or fun. however this is a critical step when taking this pistol down. if you would like more clarification, i suggest you reach out to the team at Volquartsen
I've had to refer back to this video twice now😐
I tried to clean mine and the dock locked, now it doesn't go in or out,can you help me?I don't now what to do....
Sorry Jesu, I have just seen your comment. I hope you sorted it out. Normally when it locks. it is because the Hammer moved when you were putting it back together. You need to make sure that is stays flat in the lower during assembly. to fix it. just break it down again and start again.
Great vid and sweet looking Scorpion. Buying one soon. What color combo & options did you go with? Thanks!
Thanks Dougefresh, you will love it the scorpion its such a work horse!! The one I bought is the Battle worn 6". straight out of the box with no extras. I believe that if you are in the US you have a few more options when it comes to customisation. you can chose different combos of the Upper, Lower and bolt but check with the guys @ volquartsen.com.
J B Cool right on! Thank you. The battle worn looks sexy as can be. I've been eyeing this bad boy for years, and finally gonna grab one. Cheers!
Hi, Dry firing this .22 is okay?
Was wondering the same, I wonder what manufacture recommends.
Is this is 6” barrel version? How are you liking the gun? I’m tossing up between one of these, a virctory or ruger mark 4
Hey thanks for the message! Yep it is the 6" and I am loving it.. I have pumped well over 10,000 Rounds and it is still shooting awesome with no failures. The Volquartsen has an alloy lower so it is much lighter that both the victory and Ruger. The Trigger is so crisp and the reset is bang on to get that second shot off even easier. If you have the budget i would strongly suggest you go for it as you will not be disappointed.. but if you go down the path of either the victory or Ruger, remember you can buy Volquartsen barrels and Triggers for them both. Cheers, Justin
J B thanks for the reply mate really appreciate it, I’ve got a sig p226 which was my first pistol, fun gun to shoot but the trigger is horrid when your trying to shoot a decent group. I had a look around and no one in Sydney has the volquartsen so looks like I’ll be getting it sent down from cleavers once I get my pta back. Thanks again mate
Not a problem at all and I have just seen your first message below!! so sorry for the late reply mate I didn't get any notification on that one.. Yeah The sigs are fun but they do really needing a good trigger job. Yeah Cleavers are the only supplier of Volquartsen and there was a couple there last week when I was there. Give them a buzz and ask what models they have and make sure you put one aside as they don't last long.
J B thanks mate, will let you know how it goes
Black mamba fixed this issue
How much was it
My upper will not lift off any ideas
Hi Terry, once the main spring is out it should slide See (1:16) in the vid.I push the upper with my thumb forward while holding the Lower pulling it back.. It may just be a little tight as it is new. but don't me scared to use a little force.
How did you fix it when your main spring was stuck?
I tried to open it without dry firing now its stuck i can open it
@@dev8318 as it is under tension, you need to find a way to release that. What I did when this happened to me was pushed the mainspring back into the lower (not to much force) and then kept squeezing the trigger until it fired.
@@JB-tz9nv "You need to find a way to release that." Can you be more specific? I'm in the same situation...stuck...can't get the trigger to fire...can't open the back...can't close the back.
@@isatellite I am not sure if I can be more specific. It was quite a while ago since this last happened to me and it was a pain. From what I remember is that I was that I was pulling the bolt back and forth while putting a little pressure on the main spring and squeezing the trigger. minor movements. be carful not to get frustrated with it as I have seen people damage the spring. It may take a while so just sit and play with those components.
I removed the grips from mine and one of the pins slipped inside the gun. So i went to disassemble it and found the main spring was stuck. I solved it by fully removing the grips and then drifting the top two pins completely out, with the magazine removed most of the bits dropped out from the bottom of the magazine well. The main spring was no longer under tension so it just popped straight out. I then had to reassemble it from scratch. I came back to this video to put it back together. That's my fix for a stuck main spring anyway. I know it's a late reply but sharing the knowledge can't hurt.
That is not the sear....
Thanks for your comment Reuben, Yes I did make a mistake when explaining that and didn't pick it up.. I should of said Hammer Strut. Cheers :)
Very nice gun but the biggest pain in the ass to put together
Thanks, Volquarten's video about reassembling this is fucking useless.
EDIT: Never mind, this video is fucking useless too. My $2000 gun won't go back together. It became a brick the instant I took it apart for cleaning. This is fucking unacceptable.
Sorry this video didn't help you mate. I hope you figure it out to get you back at the range. Cheers
@@JB-tz9nv Thank you, it's been frustrating. The mere action of clicking the mainspring thing back up into the gun seems to push the hammer up into the bolt.
It's physically impossible to keep the hammer down and it's physically impossible to close the gun back up. :(
@@Amaroq64 hmmm. I have just pulled apart mine again to replicate what you are experiencing and there two ways that i found was the cause. 1)When I was trying to close the spring before I squeesed the trigger 2) The main spring was not seated all the way so when it was closing if would lift out ... Give this a go - insert the main spring make sure it is seated all the way (you can feel it click into place) > Make sure the Hummer strut is sitting in the right place (2:28). And before you even begin to close the spring, squeeze the trigger and keep squeezing > close the spring and release the trigger. If it doesn't work, try it again and see if that works
@@JB-tz9nv I suppose I'll try again tomorrow. Maybe I'll make a video of the attempt.
I have had the second problem, where it comes back out again. It sometimes forces itself back out no matter how hard I try to keep it held in while closing it up.
But even when it locks completely in and I have the trigger squeezed and the little pin inside goes into the little hole that's been placed in the mainspring thing for it, it still won't close up.
I've tried taking the upper off to see what's happening, and no matter what I do, it pushes the hammer up when I push the mainspring in. The only way to get the hammer back down is to close it back in (with the top still off), and then wedge it back down, but then it's impossible to get the upper back on, and it feels like that maneuver also gets the mainspring stuck in the gun.
So whatever I do, it's just faulty or something and it's impossible to close up.
@@Amaroq64 if you make a vid let me know and I will see if I can troubleshoot for you.
