Chargrow97 Posted August 1, 2021 Report Share Posted August 1, 2021 I've recently purchase and Aero Precision .308 AR-10 from a local gun store that assembled it for me. First, I had a problem with gun going into full battery and wouldn't fire, so I took it back to the gun smith and he removed an o-ring. Then, I tried it again after that and it would occasionally go into full battery, but then I would double feed every few rounds. I'm using Armscor M80 7.62x51 brass in it. What could the other problem be? TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unforgiven Posted August 1, 2021 Report Share Posted August 1, 2021 Aero M5 works best with Armalite recoil system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True double feeds are two live rounds trying to enter the chamber at the same time. True double feeds are ALWAYS a magazine problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to be sure that we are talking apples and apples... when you say "double feed" you mean what is in the picture - not "double fire" as in "two rounds in short succession with one perceived pull of the trigger..." right? If so - I'd make sure that the magazines that came with your gun are the right ones for the lower - and perhaps order a replacement of the right type but a different high quality brand. (just what I'd do anyway...) Edited August 2, 2021 by BigNate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Search the thread "waterboarding" That's the kind of info we need to be able to help. I'll help this one along, here... This is what Rex is talking about - read this thread. Then read it again. Understand the level of detail needed to diagnose a gun-problem over the internet. It's pretty specific, in level of detail, in order to give you an accurate "assessment" on your problem. Just like "double-feed." That's a magazine issue, never has been and never will be, anything else. A Failure To Extract, and Failure to Eject can also leave two pieces of brass in the chamber - but they're not a double-feed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
