With apologies to Guy as I cannot answer his question. But I could comment on the 'won't cock' symptom here. I was given an old Scorpion some years ago and it would not cock ... quite literally the cocking action would not go all the way to engage the sears. On stripping the pistol all was clear ... the piston was jammed in the cylinder due to a disintegrated piston washer / buffer washer. It took a while to unjam the action but all was (reasonably) well after that, although I never did get the safety to work reliably.
