Hmmm
I used a DPMS Receiver Extension, DPMS Stock...Heck, I bought the whole thing as a DPMS Kit. So, just not having DPMS receiver set was the issue...Wow...tons to lean for sure!
I wasn't really blaming them and if I did...opppsss
Well
Got the upper back from mega and the new buffer spring they sent along.....98Z was on the right track I think. The new spring Diameter was .072 as opposed to the DPMS 308 spring I had that was...get ready for this...082 wire diameter. No wonder my freakin bolt would not lock back. At first I thought the 308 spring Mega sent me was too lite so I found this diagram and noticed .072 dia is right on track.
WTF is DPMS thinking putting such a heavy spring in that stock kit they sell. After doing some snooping here I found a few other people having the same issue and all had that Damn DPMS .082 dia spring. and it has 38 coils.
I have not test fired yet but I'm almost positive that was the issue.
Now, to make another upper in 6.5 creedmoor....hmmmm where to get a barrel???
I'll look into those. I need to know what the big difference is between the 34 and 38 coil...I'll check spring wire thickness when I get the one from Mega
I have a DPMS buffer spring and buffer for my Mega Arms Mahten build. Been having issues with the BCG not locking back on last round with gas block opened wide open. I also thought I had a pretty rough chamber so gave Mega Arms a call and they said send them the upper.
Just got done talking to them and they replaced the barrel for me, did all the work etc and test fired on the Lower they have..All is well. After some conversation they said they think I'm using the wrong Buffer Spring Like I mentioned I'm using the 38 coil DPMS spring. The lower they have is using a 34 coil spring and thats what they think the issue was.
I guess after all that I did some research and it seems the AR-10 buff spring is 34 coils and the DPMS is 38 coils. Should I be using the 34 coil spring?
My spring is 38 coils 12 1/2" long relaxed Buffer is 5 1/4 long.
They are also sending me a 34 coil spring and said give it a try. Could using the lighter spring cause any damage? I also have a Adj gas block.
This would be hilarious if this was the root of all my problems. Good news is Mega caught the rough chamber and replaced it free of charge and did all the work on the upper. Kudos to Mega Arms
BTW, all full length rifle stock and tube MAgpul PRS stock
