  1. And your point is......

    You get old enough, nine years ago is like, yesterday.

    Nine years ago I was in Ecuador, at the World Shoot, and that seems like it just happened.

    Okay then... This thread is worthless without pics.

  2. If it is over gassed the BCG moves right over the next round because the mag spring isn't fast enough to push the next round up fast enough.

    Nonsense...

    First question, please explain how a gas charge that operates the recoil phase of the cycle of operation has any effect at all on the speed of the bolt group during the counter recoil phase.

    Second question, given that top cartridge in the ammunition stack is resting against the bottom of the bolt group when the chambered round is fired, what action creates the force to displace the ammunition stack downward far enough to allow the bolt group to skip over said top cartridge.

    oooops, had bolt override thought wrong. My bad.

    Billdozer, definitely try another magazine to see if it still happens.

  3. Put one round in your mag and fire it to see if the BCG will lock back. If not, and you have an adjustable gas block, turn the gas off and work your way up till it locks back and then give it a little more gas for reliability.

    If it is over gassed the BCG moves right over the next round because the mag spring isn't fast enough to push the next round up fast enough.

    hope this helps.
