SRT Driver Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 Had a strange jam today. G34 with many thousands through it, ISMI guide rod, ISMI 15 lb recoil spring. Factory 10 rnd mags. WC 124 gr fp at 1.135 OAL. The first round attempted to feed but the extractor failed to pick it up. Then a second round jamed it into the BBL hood. These were the first rounds after a reload. The chain of events were: Bang, bang... reload... Bang, !!@@##$$%%^^. Could not rack it and could not drop the mag for about 15 sec until I banged the crap out of it. HELP!!!!

Custom Glock Racing Posted March 1, 2004 Share Posted March 1, 2004 It sounds like the gun may have shortstroked. The slide does not fully cycle to the rear so the pickrail grabs the new round at the extractor groove instead of behind the case head. When it happens it jams everything up badly. Hard to say what caused it by reading text. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SRT Driver Posted March 12, 2004 Author Share Posted March 12, 2004 Matt, You were right on. Too much spring. Thanks. How are your prepped trigger bars coming? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sac Law Man Posted March 14, 2004 Share Posted March 14, 2004 Here's a secret for clearing a double feed. Try it inyour gun, since it wont work in all guns.. Set up the double feed, and instead of locking back the slide, ripping out the mag then cycling the slide 3 times. just press the mag release buuton while simutaneously pulling back on the slide.. Try it you will be amazed.. Leanred the method from a class I took put on by Gabe Suarez. Works on my Duty Gun (Sig P226, .40 Cal) every time.
