It was the ammo causing the firearm to fail to feed, projectiles being driven back into the case, and the ever present danger of an explosion of the firearm as the round would and did go off out of battery distroying several test firearms at the facility.

I have to agree with you EB1911 on the Failed NATEC and the almost certain “same stuff” as all the NATEC info, rights and Patents where sold at a public Auction in March 2007. The Auction was held at NATEC’s Factory and office in Plattsburgh, NY. I was there and purchased a couple of the “test” firearms, ammo, the complete office of the accountant, a friend even bought the riding lawn mower.

For more on this “old” PCA NATEC stuff check this link:

For the Patent link:

I never shot the stuff, pulled the bullets (Sierra’s & Hornadys) and scraped the cases as dirty yellow brass as it was selling at the Auction for $7/200 case.

$6K? Are you kidding?!
We, the public, are not the government with unlimited funds.

Nice ideas, but again out of most of our reach. =P

PCP has a patent so maybe something is different or improved.

It appears to be almost the same product. Certainly not revolutionary.
