    Ohhhhh looks promising!!

    As far as my AR goes, yeah its fully lubed now. The rear was not lubed and the bolt carrier wasn't "ideal" it was fully lubed before the guy shot all 50 though and worked great. But once getting home and hand cycling them it was still catching up. When it does FTF it hangs up and does NOT go into battery. The bolt carrier is still wide open and the front 1/4 tip of the bullet is sitting in the feed ramp. A solid hit to the bottom of the mag feeds and puts it into battery. Someone said maybe its the gas system?

    Was suppose to have an update from the range today. Got to the range and a group had just gotten there for some classes so it was closed to the public....FAIL! My 1911 frame/slide get back to me tomorrow so hopefully this weekend I'll put it together in a rough state and shoot the 1911 and the AR...HOPEFULLY, I have a crazy busy weekend.

    oh and another thing. Check and see if the buffer is binding at all. Sometimes if the buffer tube and stock are not perfectly square in the lower it will bind like you are saying. What happens is the castle nut gets over torqued and it causes the tube to bind the buffer enough to not chamber a round. SEEN THAT happen a bunch of times too with people who build kits. not DD stock guns??
