I am currently having some extractor issues with my AR-15. The rifle cycles but fails to eject the spent casing and proceeds to push the next round into the back off the spent casing. This type of error is consistent across all different types of ammunition, from Federal to Remington to Tula, and magazines, such as Pmags and stanags. I have examined spent casings and noticed that the extractor marks were light and did not reach fully into the lip of round. I also examined the extractor while the bolt was assembled and noticed no carbon build up or obstruction of the extractor. Upon disassembling the bolt, I cleared the extractor and removed a small number of brass shavings that must have come off during the extraction process. I hope that this solves the issue, but is there anything I can do to prevent the extractor from "shaving" off the brass or this extractor issue?
I have emailed LWRCI and they are sending replacements, but I was wondering if the wise members of calguns knows of any thing I can do to fix the extractor I currently have.
Many thanks in advance.
My search-fu did not yield anything that would help me with this manner.
