First, Don't flame me if I can't fully explain what's going on because I'm not sure what's happening.
I recently installed a Geissele SSA-E(2 stage trigger) in a PWS MK114. This is a gun I've just started shooting recently after sitting in my safe for a while. Took it to the range in Tracy. I was shooting as fast as I could and on the 3rd round nothing. This happened almost every time.
The only time it didn't happen was when doing failure drills going from 2 shoots to the chest and one to the head. Being a 2 stage trigger I'm wondering if I wasn't letting the trigger on all the way to reset. A couple time the gun would go into battery but the trigger wouldn't move.
However, there was one instance the gun wouldn't fire I did a tap rack and when I pulled the charging handled it didn't eject the round. The live round was still in the chamber.
There were a few instances when it looked like it tried to chamber two rounds.
I don't think I installed the trigger incorrectly and are getting lite primer strikes because by the end of the day i fired all the rounds. By the way the rounds were the Green tip 5.56.
I'm wondering if it might be the magazine with a weak spring or do I need to go to a heavier buffer to slow down the bolt carrier.
I'm a little disappointed because i've run a franken AR through multiple training classes with a lot of very fast shooting and never had an issue like this. However, I was running the stock single action trigger.
Sorry for being all over the place.
