    AR feed issue

    I having a weird problem that started after I cleaned my bolt and replaced the latch on the t handle. If you look at the primer side of the magazine any bullet on the right side of the magazine jams. It gets stuck half way and the bolt dents the brass perty good. I tried two differnt uppers and several mags but iI only have one bcg any ideas?

    Are you charging the rifle by pulling back the charging handle and releasing it?
    If so, that is a/the problem.

    You should charge the rifle by locking the bolt back, returning the charging handle forward, then inserting the magazine and releasing the bolt via the bolt release.

              Was using 10/20 plastic pmags that I have used several times before but used my metals and problem solved. At least they cycle fine in my keltec. By the way the dent in the case was in the center of the brass. Thanks for the ideas guys
