Has anyone had a chance to handle/shoot one of these?
Rev Arms Blade I've wanted something along the lines of a scorpion but the mags, and price have kept me away. This looks like some good features, good price, and takes the Glock mag, which I have a shit ton of. Now with F troop speeding up I'm inclined to SBR it.  Attached FileSomeone on YouTube commented it was a copy of something. Thoughts? |

It is a near copy of the CZ Scorpion EVO. We were looking at getting one in house as it looks like it might even take our Scorpion EVO Slider Stock.

I just can't get past the front end on that, reminds me of the fish gill stocks on the original sig 556s.... That's not a positive memory.

Bumping to see if anyone has more info?
Came across the FA version being tested, looks very controllable in FA, and makes me hopeful that it was designed as a Mil / LEO SMG, and not just as an export toy. Per the video, the gun is 100% aluminum vs polymer of Scorpion, which is also pretty cool.  ÇELIKARMS CROSSLINE 9x19 mm Video showing field strip. Has AR style bolt release and mag release. Big diff vs CZ is Blade does not use a captive spring / bolt combo. Rather it has a big spring along the top, and then the bolt is not attached. Receiver looks to use a very large urethane recoil bumper, which also seems positive. Later in the review the trigger seems to be similarly heavy / god awful to the CZ. Wonder if the HBI springs will work for this...  Turecki CZ SCORPION EVO :)

It looks very interesting. The price point is very attractive as well.

Apparently we missed a killer sale on these, being blown out for like $350-$400.
A redditor reports that a slightly trimmed/modded Scorpion brace will fit the Rev, but that it also comes with a pic rail adapter for universal braces. Gotta scroll down for the updates: https://www.reddit.com/r/czscorpion/comments/1d9z7at/rev_arms_blade_turkish_cz_scorpion_clone_that_is/

We have one in the shop. It is basically a scorpion, but a bit bulkier and heavier.
The stock mounting ALMOST works with Scorpion stocks, but not quite (we wanted to see if it fit our EVO Slider Stocks). They made it different enough it does not mate, and you need to use their proprietary stocks or a picatinny stock. I think these just hit the market at the wrong time, and look just a bit "funny" enough to be a swing and a near miss. If these had come out when the Scorpion was hot and hard to get, or when the economy was strong they would have been a great seller. Sven Manticore Arms |

Have you had a chance to fire yours? I'm mostly curious how reliable they are, and how the shooting experience is vs the Scorpion (does the extra weight make for less recoil/smoother, etc). |

In short, you are not going to be able to mount a suppressor without some work. Sven Manticore Arms |

Back on sale for $399, with some reviews on PSA being pretty positive. Only complaints being weight and charging handle stiffness.
