Vector RPD’s I have has run over 11k rounds works everytime I take it to the range …there fast and big fun.

The early guns had some problems, first the take down pin or main pin was soft, started to bend after time and if not caught it would tweak the receiver Vector ended up having to replace some receivers . Next was the transfer bar it would stick you would get two and three round burst with the RPD extra long firing pin, the operator would enjoy a runaway from time to time. I never experience the issues as Blackbear has but if you look at the manual the original pins were peened in place and were cited as non-serviceable by user. In every case Vector will paid shipping for repairs both ways. Vector has it down by now.
