CZ Scorpion Metal feed lip magazines

Is this a concern? What companies offer metal feed lips? Historically I know that in the beginning of the Scorpion being on the market some had broken the OEM polymer magazines but is it a legitimate concern? Thought about buying some metal feed lips for duty magz delegating my OEM versions for range practice. Anyone have info?

IMO no, it isn't.

There were some issues with 20rd mags that had been sold with 30rd mag springs, but that's all I've seen.

I have a carbine version, and have had no issues with the factory mags (around 2500 rounds fired).

Some of the very early mags had an issue, wasn’t relegated to size that I ever saw, but CZ swapped those out without issue. I have some of the Manticore Arms 32 round mags with metal feed lips, but only because I can.

Success always occurs in private, and failure in full view.

Complacency sucks…

Prepper Gun Shop has them on sale for $19.99 with 33% off of shipping.

I ordered 6 just because at $20 a piece seemed like a good deal.

Looks like they are out of stock now, but might want to watch for their availability to change.

Clear are in stock now.

It was a known problem when they first came out. CZ was really good at replacing them. However, the problem lead to Prepper and Manticore Arms coming up with the metal ones to take CZ on. The price at $20.00 has really dropped.

I have a package on the way from Prepper also.
