This video provides an expert-level look at a modified PSA Dagger capable of full-auto fire, featuring insights from a knowledgeable firearms instructor. It covers initial testing, recoil management, accuracy assessments, and identifies a potential mechanical failure (pin walking) after approximately 200 rounds. The content emphasizes legal compliance and technical observation, offering valuable data for enthusiasts interested in high-rate-of-fire platforms.

Quick Summary

The PSA Dagger, a 9mm Glock clone, was tested in full-auto configuration using a 'Glock switch'. While surprisingly controllable for center mass grouping, the high rate of fire caused the locking block trigger pin to walk out of the frame after ~200 rounds, a known issue. Legal modification requires an FFL 07/SOT Class 2.
