TNW aero survival carbine

[rufrdr]

Anyone have experience with the TNW? I'm interested but being left handed I can't use it if:

1. It ejects brass straight back like the AR pre-brass deflector

2. It ejects burning bits of powder along with the case. That stings!

I'm interested in the 10mm and .357 SIG versions.

Had a factory assembled 9mm and purchased the 357Sig barrel and bolt face.
Ran 90% reliable in 9mm, regardless of what I fed it.
Couldn't get it to run reliably on 357Sig. I tried 6 different brands of ammo with no luck.
Two to three rounds off a full mag and it would FTF. The tip of the projectile would catch on the feed ramp everytime.
Eventually got fed up with it and sold it to another forum member with complete transparency about the feeding issues.
Never heard back from him on his attempts to get it running reliably with 357Sig.

Powder residue wasn't bad, no worse than my Scorpion Evo.
I can't remeber what direction the brass ejected.

i’m pretty sure this is the exact one i own now after a few homes...

i’ve added 10mm and it runs that well as well as 9mm. the 10mm trigger similar assembly was a tight fit and needs some coaxing to change.

never tried the 357sig....

i can’t remember which way the brass flies.

this is a good reason for a range session soon.

welcome to shoot it if you’re in raleigh area.

personally I would get the pistol version. i think you can then use pistol and carbine barrels w no legal issues as long as it’s got a brace and not a stock

Mine was a factory demo Carbine that had a nice cerakote finish in Blue with Magpul stock.
I could probably fish around my paperwork and track down the serial number
