as a California residents, can Matador Arms ship an upper to my FFL?

Just want to confirm whether Matador will process and ship the order to a CA FFL, assuming the FFL is willing to receive it.

Thanks.

Order Update Please.

Order #9051

I would like to know my order update please. I know you guys are backed up. That's okay. I do not mind waiting. It is expected for a popular invention within firearms community. I have a oversea trip planned later this year. I just want to plan out my schedule. Just do not want my package to be stolen while im away. Very much appreciate it. Looking forward to a reply.

Thank you!

Recommended Lower Receivers

Hi everyone, my blem upper just arrived. I tried to get the fitment right with my existing Warscorp9 lower, but after some minor filing didn't do the trick this looks to be a more serious project and I don't want to be down a PCC if I do it wrong. While I wait for Matador's official scorpion mag lower offering - here's hoping that arrives soon - I'd like to still get some use out of the upper. Do y'all have any recommendations for cheap Glock or Colt magazine lowers you use in your builds that I could run in the meantime?

Accuracy Issues

Good evening everyone. The purpose about this post is to see if any of you have had a similar issue and can help before I bother Dave. I am also not here to bad mouth the company or the product.

I recently received my Espada (Order# 9156 for those who are still waiting) and have been overall enjoying the firearm. I had to make a minor ejector adjustment and my feed ramp has loosened but those are no big deal.

The issue is a wandering zero. For context I’ve shot hundreds of weapons in my time in the military (also an instructor) and as a civilian. I’m pretty confident in my optic mounting and zero abilities.

Over the course of two range days with the espada, I could never zero at 50 yards. I could zero at 15 and it would be stupid precise, holes on holes. As soon as I shifted to 50 yards, I might get a decent group, make an adjustment on the optic, shoot again and be off the paper. Typically I was very wide right anytime I went to distance. The best group I got at 50 yards was about a 4 MOA group about 3 inches high. I made the proper elevation adjustment on the red dot and my next ‘group’ produced one round on the extreme right edge of a full silhouette target.

For further clarification, this happened with two different optics. The first was a Monstrum prism scope (yes, low quality, I had low expectations of it already) but the second optic was a Vortex Triumph red dot that I have used, grouped, and shot no problem with other firearms. So I do not think I have an optic issue. I wished I had written down the results of each optic and the direct group to group so that I could be clearer.

Any advice or knowledge would be appreciated. Next time I go out, I’m gonna start at 15 and move to 25 to get a better feel for what is going on. Thank you very much, have a good day!

It is finished... (Until a FRT exists for the Espada)

The suppressor got approved yesterday.
It's official, I have a new favorite gun.
It has the hydraulic buffer and all of the Matador goodies along with the Vent 2, and other stuff you see there.
It is a grand total of 23 inches long.
It was pouring down rain last night when I finally got it home, so I wasn't able to give it a full run through - but I did fire a mag off the porch at some trees about 100 yards off.
I learned two things I didn't know.

  1. The sound of brass falling onto a wooden deck is actually kind of loud.
  2. The firing pin hitting the primer is a very distinct click.
  3. The sound of a 9mm round hitting a tree 100 yards away in the rain is still louder than either one.
    I really don't think I could be more pleased with how this ended up.
    It even fits in the bag I carry around everywhere.

Dave and company, I salute you for a fine, fine weapon.

Broke ejector while adjusting

Got my Mat-9 upper in today and started heating up the ejector so I could adjust it and it broke. 😭

Tips on ejector adjusting?

Learn new up on chassis my fellow bullpupers.

I think I'm ready to dip my toe into this space.

My goals:

5.56mm.

I want to be able to slap on multiple AR uppers.

Keeping ergos close to standard is a plus

My worries:

I don't want to have to piece this shit together. I want ease of, "This chassis takes <insert style of upper>. And it runs.

So lets go. Impress myself and everyone else with your experiences, woes, and knowledge 😁🤙

I need a replacement extractor

My mat9 upper extractor got chipped and now it won't pull the round out after firing. Does anyone know how to get a hold of Matador I put in a support ticket two weeks ago and all I need is a replacement extractor is there anywhere I can look for one from a 3rd party?

EZTS v2 spring too short?

ordered the blowback EZTS v2 for my BRN9 since the original 3d printed ones like to explode randomly. its a nice part but the springs are entirely different length. I tried it with the included spring and the bolt didnt really want to go home so I swapped them. That seemed to do it

Everything in my order was just tossed into the box but seemingly all there.

I got my FRT sled installed on my aero partisan lower and it works with both springs, but definitely not enough to send it home all the time with the new shorter spring.

I assume the obvious answer is I got the wrong spring… but figured i’d ask just in case this seemingly normal upgrade isnt compatible with my older BRN9 for some reason.

Thanks

Got my FDE MAT9 upper

Ordered at the end of January and my upper came in a couple weeks ago, conveniently at the same time my form 1 came back approved. I threw the light on there just to try it out, I'm going to figure out a different spot later. I've put a couple hundred rounds through it so far and it's quickly becoming one of my favorites.
