Nice score on the Crawford staff Brian. I know where there are a lot of other useful things you don't need so watch out. You might be spending more once I post links. :D:D
 
I'm not sure if that staff would be useful (too heavy?) but I've looked at them for a few years and thought I'd give it a try. Thanks for the heads up.

Ron, now that you posted on a public forum that something that is as valuable as a Horton Necker will be at your front door, don't be surprised if it is not there when you look.:D BTW, you already have a Horton or two also.

Yeah but....... a guy can't have enough neckers.....:p:cool:
 
Pluck, the leather lined kydex sheaths rock, I order them with every knife I get from Jeremy. Perfect retention, almost too tight, but I like it that way - no rattle, no wobble. Just don't have Josh dye the linig, my OJ Necker's blade isn't so OJ anymore, got black spots from the black lining.

Well....cleaned the chamber on the AR..........ran some remington threw it.....it started out a little better but is still fubar............One round in the chamber without the mag and it fires and ejects. Put the mag in and jammo.......mag change didnt change anything. This rifle has a new collapsable stock with new buffer spring and buffer. Now im thinking too strong a buffer spring or dirty gas tube/vent? The cases arent market like theres a chamber problem.................Now the bad part.... the rifle has a 11.5 inch barrel with the welded on 5 inch flash hider..........i let Jeremy weld it..........hes not a welder........its gonna take a lot of grinding to undo the weld he did.........if he had welded on the Titanic it wouldnt have sank..........unless it went down at the dock from the weight of the welds, anyway people would have been saved.........

Im not an AR guy........my AKs run all the time so dose my Daewoo............so any advise will be greatly appericiated..

Thanks guys

I wonder if some magic smoke will help............

Interesting, you've tried different mags? They all do the same thing?

Mag change no help.........it really seems to me the bolt is comming back right to the back of the mag enough to strip off another round but no eject the spent round.

The first round jammed, then 2 or 3 in a row did fine and then back to jam a rounding.....

Then something flakey happend........ it got to snaping, like three in a row. i pulled the bolt and put it back in and it was fine. This lower is a pre ban colt and i had to use the adapter pin to use the new upper on the big hole lower. i think that problem is separate from the jamming..........

On a lighter note i got a Hi Standard Double Nine 22 revolver that shoots great.........
 
Spikes upper..........standard buffer from midway........new tube as well....... Im not sure of the make on it i ordered it a year ago.........

Strange problem indeed. When they do eject, where do they land?

4-5 feet away, to the right and behind me.....

Can you clean the gas systen without pulling the gas block? I really think to get to the vent hole ill have to pull the block completely off which means grinding off a big unly weld................wait a minute, is that a bad thing?

Only in the epi-center. Your NFA examiner is much faster than ours,,,:mad:
 
ok carto, here's my 2cents worth. there's no need to clean the gas system. 50K PSI should do the trick. I'd check that your gas key is properly staked. Also check that you aren't losing any gas at the gasblock(if you clean it really well before shooting you will notice the carbon build up from a leak). What kind of ammo are you using? Try some good federal m193 if you haven't. Also check for short stroking. Load magazines with 1 round. Fire and check that the bolt locks back. If it locks back with good ammo, proceed to the next steps as you have established that you don't have the problem of being under gassed. You said the rifle has a "standard buffer". Does this mean the head is not marked? If so then it is a carbine weight, which is not heavy enough for an 11.5" barrel. Colt 11.5" commando(my duty rifle) uses a "H" buffer. My home built 11.5" needed a "H2" buffer to run correctly. If you are going to change buffer weights, I would probably just go with the "H2".
 
I think the only way to clean the gas hole, is to get the block off. You can stick a pipe cleaner through it, but it won't make the corner into the barrel. I guess there isn't any space between the gas block and the flash hider, huh?

Brians advice made me lol,,,:D
