DK Production MP44

So, I had to send my BD44 back once for some pretty bad feeding issues. Received it back and it still has issues feeding about once every mag loaded to 15 rounds, but at least it doesn't mangle the ppu cases quite as bad. What are the reliability expectations for this clone? I don't mind an issue every now and then but what's going on now seems too frequent to me.
I was also destroying brass pretty bad I ended up drilling a hole through the gas block and put a screw in there to adjust the gas pressure. It slowed the bolt down enough to keep the fired case from detaching from the bolt, prematurely and getting hung up in the chamber.
 
I am also curious what other members here have experienced regarding reliability.

I had to send mine back. The first forty or so rounds were good then I pulled the trigger once and two rounds went down range. Talk about a surprise. It happened again and I sent it back. They said they fixed it and now I am waiting to get it back.

Mine was destroying cartridges ramming the nose into the feed ramp/trunnion.

Keep in mind mine was a kit build dk did not build it so any problems that I had were not related to them whatsoever. They’re just what I had to do to solve my issues.
 
alright, i have 500 rounds through my mp43/1. No real issues. Ppu ammo gives some strange ejection patterns. Out of 500 rounds, i have probably had less than 20 failures of any kind. All of which are magazine based. My worst magazine is the one that came with the rifle. Dk's new magazines are much better and have much less failures. I am going to take the bad magazines and do some work to it as others have suggested. I still love this rifle. This weekend i was able to test rapid fire and i ran 200 rounds through it. Picture below.

I am in line for 1 and gave my deposit but at the time was not given a choice of options
is this something that comes up when your rifle is ready to be built?
Because I would like the scope rail also

I gave my desired options in the comment window during order. Call them, I don’t think they have started building them.
