Don't add night vision inside of CA...one way ticket to jail.

Something somebody told you, or did you read it on the interweb.

this is the law he is talking about,

Sniperscopes
468. Any person who knowingly buys, sells, receives, disposes of, conceals, or has in his possession a sniperscope shall be guilty of a misdemeanor, punishable by a fine not to exceed one thousand dollars ($1,000) or by imprisonment in the county jail for not more than one year, or by both such fine and imprisonment. As used in this section, sniperscope means any attachment, device or similar contrivance designed for or adaptable to use on a firearm which, through the use of a projected infrared light source and electronic telescope, enables the operator thereof to visually determine and locate the presence of objects during the nighttime. This section shall not prohibit the authorized use or possession of such sniperscope by a member of the armed forces of the United States or by police officers, peace officers, or law enforcement officers authorized by the properly constituted authorities for the enforcement of law or ordinances; nor shall this section prohibit the use or possession of such sniperscope when used solely for scientific research or educational purposes.

but as I mentioned before, it is basically illegal to possess a sniperscope, installation of the sniperscope is not required.

DO you have to slam the mag at the bottom to get it in and locked? With the bolt back, the mag should slide nice and easy into place a lock. If you have to slam it they may not have chamfered the bottom of the magwell that would allow the P mags to fit properly. Not sure if that is what the problem is but worth a shot.

WOW you may be onto something there. #1 Yes. #2 with bolt back not tried.Chamfered
you say, I'm thinking.... thank you for your insight. Well back from the range w/dpms.cmmg 308 and after shooting radway green 762 and british delinked ammo (both NATO) NOT ONE MIS FEED BUT I'M STILL HOLDIN ON TO THE MAG LIKE A GRIP POD!(have to push mag up for for the other 9). The AK308 which I found is discontinued ran without a hitch,as I new it would.
Funny thing happened @ the range today.My back was turned to the targets 100/200/300/400/5/6 and I hear the range master
call a cease fire.He said animal on the range! I turned around waiting to see a squirrel or on the outside a raccoon but no, to everyone's surprise it was F@%$^*# 3 deer one buck and two smaller! Now to a lot of folks this is probably an everyday scene but being 35 min. from LA is pretty wild,for wild life.I hope someone caught video. Walking @ 300yrd mark Now I want to shoot animals. The fine would be poaching/felony/$10,000 dollar fine California is a great place to live but ya wouldn't want to shoot here. Oh yeah I LOVE ANIMALS AND BAMBI BUT IF THEIR STUPID ENOUGH TO WALK THROUGH A RANGE W.50BMG AND A GRIP OF SHOOTERS THEY WILL DIE AND I WILL EAT THEM!http://308ar.com/forum/Smileys/default/grin.gif

If I were you I'd strip it and send the lower to CMMG, the way you describe it makes me think it's either an out of spec magwell or the mag release button is a little too low. They are easy to get ahold of and you can mail the stripped lower to them and back to you without an FFL via UPS or FEDEX if I remember right.

What range?

[TheBigness]

Angeles shooting range

[Shark06]

Are you using cmmg lower?Like I posted when I hold the mag up while shooting
it fires all rounds.Do have BB as well?

Yep, CMMG lower with BB. All mags slide in easily, lock and drop free.
At first, the bolt didn't completely lock, when the CH was pulled back. Dudes at Coldwarshooters fixed it before it was first shot. I wonder if this could be the problem with the bolt or the boltcatch...

[TheBigness]

Thanks for all your help. Eric over @ CMMG told me to send it to him so they can get to the bottom of problem. I'll post outcome when I get it back.

Mine gave me similar problems, let us know what happens with it.
