Mongo40 Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 I put together a 308 using AERO upper an lower, AR Stoner 20" barrel an BCG. Was shooting it this past weekend and 99% of the shots I was short stroking, It will eject but not load the next round. The barrel says it uses a rifle length gas tube so I installed a mil spec rifle length one I purchased from Midway and its just a little short of being in the middle of the cam cut out in the upper, also I wasn't shooting it "Wet". I used the search function an these are two of the cures I came up with from that so anyone have advice as to where I can get a little longer gas tube than current stock mil spec, cheap fix an then I'll try it again and see if it fixes my problem.

Mongo40 Posted October 23, 2018 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 After looking around, someone posted some lengths, Armalite's rifle length is 15.5" about a quarter inch longer than the rest which would be about right so may give that one a try.

What he said... and confirm how long your buffer is and which buffer tube you’re using? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
