[QUOTE="rcoody, post: 1240369, member: 91090"] Well first and easiest fix first. Are you running your bolt carrier wet. The first thing that stops these guns from running is lack of lubrication. You would be surprised what a good dose of CLP will do for one. If.that doesn't fix it obviously undergassed. is your gas block pinned, setscrew or clamp on? Did you locktite it? first thing I would do is pull the bolt carrier and drop the lower and take a look at the gas tube. Is it in the middle where it lines up with the gas key? then I would check the gas key on the bolt carrier and make sure it is tight. If you haven't found the problem then next is to remove the gas block or at least check the gas block for alignment. What I do when I am installing a gas block is plug the breach end of the barrel with a cleaning rag, blast canned air in the muzzle end and see what kind of flow you get from the gas tube in the upper. After you have done it a few times you know what good flow sounds like. somewhere in there you will find your problem. [/QUOTE]
