98Z5V Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 2 minutes ago, harv said: cheap milspec buffer spring and tube dont remember the brand may have been ar stoner Gonna need details on that stuff, man. Measurement time. Internal depth in the receiver extension? How deep is it, inside? A tape measure is good enough for this, and it's either gonna be 7" internal depth, it it's gonna be REAL close to 7 5/8" internal depth. You stated "mil-spec" so it's carbine length, and not rifle length. You're running a carbine recoil system, but we need to see what makes it up. How long it the buffer? It's it 2.5" long, or is it 3.25" long? How much does the buffer weigh? What is the relaxed length of the spring - out of the rifle, laying on the table - how long is it? How many coils in it, end to end? Can you measure the wire diameter? That's the kinda necessary stuff, right now. Nothing else can be figured out until that info is up here.

By the way, the only person in the world that would have been able to track your firearm, by serial number posted on the web, is your FFL.

98Z5V Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 That's a rifle receiver extension, there. There's no "mil-spec or commercial" with rifle gas systems... What's going on here? How long is your buffer? it needs to be 5.200" long. And not 5.900" long... You have an AR15 carbine buffer spring in there, or a really wrong copy of a .308AR spring. Whatever it is, it isn't right.

So we know what we're working with here. It feels like I'm having to waterboard you to get information, and you're very vague, until you're specifically asked about something.

98Z5V Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) Details, dude, details. You're not very forthcoming with details... For example... what CALIBER is this rifle? That hasn't been stated one single time in this thread... With the amount of calibers available to choose from, I'm not "assuming" anything - and you haven't stated anything... Rifle gas, "midlength" gas?... What's the barrel length? Edited September 26, 2018 by 98Z5V Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

survivalshop Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 OK, that Photo with the Gas Tube with in the Cam Pin cut looks fine . I also noticed the GB is off the Barrel Shoulder a bit . If the fired Case is stuck in the Chamber & not ejecting , are their pull marks on the Extractor grove on the Case ? You also say the Action works properly without a live round in the chamber ( a fired , unsized case with stick every time if you feed it back into the Chamber ) . It could be a tight Chamber , Rough Chamber or just a tight fitting of the Cam Pin to Upper Receiver fit ( needs more Lubricant or different type , maybe some grease on the Cam Pin & its Channel in the BC. The Buffer system is another matter , you will normally see FTE/FTF issues with most miss matched or incorrect Buffer systems .Fired cases jammed in the Chamber is not associated with the Buffer system , unless its locking the BCG movement & you say the Action is working with out a round in the Chamber . I would like to see some fired Brass , including the Bases. One thing at a time , seems you may have mutable issues . 7 hours ago, harv said: 308 cal 20 inch ss barrel LUTH-AR MBA-1 AR-15 MODULAR BUTTSTOCK mid length gas sorry I am not good at asking for help Thats not the fist stock system from them that we have seen issues with , if my memory serves me correctly .

DNP Posted September 26, 2018 Report Share Posted September 26, 2018 (edited) Have you cycled live UNfired ammo through it? Lube it up, load a magazine with 5 rounds and charge it, then extract and load the next round until the mag is empty. I'm just curious to hear how it does with that and how it feels.
