Please do not take this the wrong way but if the gun truly does run "at the range" and not at the match then it is a user induced failure. A gun doesn't know it is at a match but you do. Could you be changing your grip under match pressure? maybe limp wrist.

You are changing the recoil spring to shoot 9mm right?

Rock Island Armory/ Armscor
Made in the Philippines.
Metal Frames.
Use Para pattern magazines and parts, although both may need fitting to the gun.
May be able to use current production STI and SV mags with Canyon Creek mag catch conversion
This is not entirely accurate. I have both their 2011 railed frame in 9mm as well as the 22TCM/9mm combo gun. These do not use either para or STI/SVI mags. I've tried both and neither fit. It's a custom mag (at least in their 9mm). The mag is a Mec-Gar body. They use different basepads for each, and I think the railed/tactical model uses a Dawson pad.
I use para mags in mine and it works just fine so maybe we are looking at poor QC or tolerance stacking.

Check to make sure you haven't got gunk in your seating die. I am assuming that you didn't tumble the new brass but did the once fired could be a build up of residue from your media. doesn't take much to equal .005"

Thanks for the hook up!!!!!!

Yeah I just mounted a short rail section and the AFG to that. works well. I can't tell from the picture if that is what was done there but you really can't tell their is a rail section under mine.

Some of my favorite carbine handling. Sucker Punch. They did a pretty good job IMHO
-
All firearms lose accuracy with use. I chose to start with the most accurate I could buy and let it degrade from here. You can never have too accurate a gun. Love my LB's

Sell it and buy a used S_I Open gun.

I used to have that job in high school, and even though it sucked, it was a job. I make sure to keep leaving the carts loose in the lot for the next teenager who needs a $5.40 an hour job like I had.
Agree. Cart return areas are nothing but a ploy by the market to enlist the public to police the carts that they normally have their employees recover. Give a kid a break and leave your cart.
I park mine next to cars that I think are driven by people who like to return carts so they have something to complain about on BrianEnos.com.
Watched a lady parked drivers side next to the cart rack unload her cart into the trunk and then push it passenger side away from the rack, place it there in a parking spot and return to the drivers side and get in. I guess she wanted the extra exercise of pushing her cart to the far side of her car and returning.

I bought a bunch of Para P-18 mags from CDNN that have the Para extended base pads. They work great and hold 20 rounds. I am really don't know of other options other than modifying STI mags.

I dont eat a lot of this stuff but I boughr a pkg of twinkes at a convience store this morning just because they were there. Taste the same as i remember but they seemed smaller. Are they?---------------Larry
Yep!

Well, I got back out to the range this morning and I now know more. My hammer is resetting and is not following. But my trigger is not resetting. If you push the trigger forward you hear a loud click and then the rifle will fire again.
I am assuming the reason it works manually and passed most of the function checks was that the trigger would be released between manual cycles of the bolt, where its held back when actually firing.
Mark, it passed the Lower Only function checks. When I tried the ones you linked with the upper on, that's when I made progress on finding the issue. So, thanks!
In that case you need to ensure the trigger moves freely in the trigger slot. I had to open up the slot on a lower I had when I installed a CMC trigger. The trigger was wider and it caused enough binding that it didn't allow the trigger spring to reset the trigger but it would reset like you said. Take your upper back off. take the lower only and with one hand prevent the hammer from over traveling and pull and HOLD the trigger. Next recock the hammer and release the trigger to see if the trigger will reset. if it doesn't push the trigger back forward and see if it resets if it does your trigger is binding and you have to find the cause.

Also I find I have a lot less problems when I run my ARs really wet,(especially new ones).Lube everything really well and try again.
-
Will it lock open on an empty mag when using live ammo? Sounds like it might be short stroking. Do you have access to different ammo, another upper or lower? If you do swap things arround and see if your upper and lower function on different ones.

Tombuster II on both of mine for sights. Unwelded lifter.

+1 Just cuz it's old doesn't mean it ain't right.

Rules usually state # of rounds allowed in gun, not tube length,so there would really be no advantage. If you want more 2 3/4" shells put on a longer tube
-
KInda hard to guess what it is with the little info provided. If I have the rounds jamming into the barrel hood (stove pipe is a failure to eject an empty casing,leaving it trapped between the breach face and barrel hood)it usually is mag related, but can also be an extractor issue. Have you removed the extractor and cleaned it and the tunnel it fits in?
-
Probably cheaper to take and cut the stock handle and weld a larger end on it from maybe a benelli handle. Oh and by the way I have 2 712's and both have extended bolt handles.
-
DC ammo used to but I haven't talked to him about it in a while,and even then he did it seasonally when he wasn't reloading as much. He might have his hands full with reloading.

Top bottom....gotta HIT!
Pat, it is GOOD to have you around, Thanks for your time

Thanks would have to be the ONLY type I don't have.

Just got my gun back from Jim @ Firebird but I forgot to ask about extended chokes. Where are you guys getting them from, Jim?
Make that Akdal( I wish I could type!!!

CMC drop in trigger fitting?

Cock the hammer, hold it all the way back and the safety should go in. You will probably have to wiggle the safety a bit and possibly let up slightly on the hammer. Hope this helps if not, I would send it back, CMC will make it right.
