Howdy folks,
I have a new rifle build with a 16 inch barrel and a mid length gas system. Function seems to be 100% so far and the bolt locks back each and every time.
The oddity is that it coughs the brass out at the 1:00. Not much force at all on the ejection cycle.
When i first saw the low ejection force i was sure it would not even lock the bolt back at the end.
It does though.
I tried M855 ammo for the first 10 shots doing the single fire/clean routine. It does not seem to change with a change in ammo.
I have tried 2 different BCG's. Does the same thing...
Very strange indeed.
Next i think i will change the gas block. I have a spare on hand.
Any ideas fellas?
My other rifles either throw the brass out to the right and behind, or are tuned to do so.
