I am having issues with a new AR 10 style rifle, it is a brand new build and was never shot before.
Specs:
16” .308 win X Caliber barrel, rifle length gas
Mega Maten upper/ lower combo cerakoted burnt bronze
Jp adjustable gas block
Jp BCG
Jp silent captured spring
PWS advanced buffer tube
M118 LR ammo
Observations:
Rifle will manually cycle through a magazine smoothly (not firing)
When firing the bolt will get stuck in the chamber, in order to eject the casing I will have to grab the charging handle and bump the buttstock to dislodge it
If I adjust the gas block and open it all the way up it will cycle, as soon as I begin to close the gas off it gets stuck.
No abnormal marks on the casings
I tried a different complete JP BCG, didn’t change anything
Rifle was lubed and is clean
My thoughts:
Issue with the chamber
Issue with the buffer tube
Ammo, maybe try .308 instead of 7.62
I do have another similar build, I may try swapping out upper and lowers to see what happens
Any ideas?
