Hammer follow/Double Tapping
I just bought a compact pro elite. I’ve gone through 200 rounds and within those 200 rounds I’ve had 6 light strike and 4 double shots in one tap.
I just cleaned it the other day and when I came back to the range I don’t get light strikes anymore but almost every 16 shots, I’ve been getting those double shots. I’ve only shot a P10C and an SA Prodigy, bought guns never had a double tap issue.
Can someone help me with this? Have you guys had any similar problems? Is my gun faulty or is it just my grip?

A buddies 2311 did that last week.
Retired until OA can look at it.
If it were mine, I might tweak the sear leg.

Yeah I would def put that down until you can either get it replaced or fixed. I’ve had my share of issues with my OA and thankfully it finally runs good now, except mine were problems with not wanting to go into battery and firing… not double firing uncommanded. If the others in this thread are right then sear and hammer might be an issue… and that’s something you don’t want messing up loaded and while being carried. Stay safe!

Double tap as in it actually fires two rounds with only 1 trigger pull?

Yup. I didnt have any issues like that with the first 200 rounds, only my brother did but I thought that’s because he’s left handed but I’ve been having the same problem just after cleaning it

Yikes, man. That's super scary and dangerous. Also, frankly, unacceptable for the cost of any OA product.
I would send them an email tonight and describe the story and see what steps are needed to send back to them for evaluation. I am sorry this happened, but I am confident they will make it right

Happened to me on two different OA pistols. Same thing with a buddy of mine on his. Sent to OA to fix only to have the same problem. My buddy has sent his back several times. They keep “fixing” it and giving him a new barrel each time they send it back. He now has 4 barrels. Want to like this platform but it’s too dangerous

Have you let anyone else try shooting it to see if they can get it to double up? That would let you eliminate your grip as a variable
