Gas block is YHM fixed. Absolutely installed properly. It never cycles a round and Federal American Eagle 5.56 and PMC NATO surplus 5.56. all 55 grain.

I was praying you would chime in! I did try another lower from a known working carbine. Same effect! I do have an A2 clone and I will try that one with the rifle length tube and buffer. I always thought an 18" barrel with a rifle length gas tube should work with a carbine lower. Both lowers worked exactly the same, no change in the short stroking. I did try a known good BCG as well with no change. I checked the cuts on the rings of both bolts and both were properly staggered.

I got an upper from a guy on MeWe. It has an Aero upper and an 18" Stainless HBar in .223 Wylde. He said be only put 40 rounds through it and it ran flawlessly for him! The upper did not come with BCG so I got a new stainless BCG from PSA. I have since made 5 trips to the range and can't get it to stop short stroking. I have the upper on a carbine lower. I have tried the following, Tried another lower, another BCG, got a brand new gas block and new rifle length gas tube. Also tried other mags and ammo. All ammo was NATO spec 5.56 55 grain FMJ. I am at a loss now! The photo below is it failing to eject the spent round. at times it will eject but never strip off a new round.

I fear more is planned and orchestrated that we know! MUCH MORE!

If she turns up dead in the next month, there should be no doubt in ANYONE'S mind and the Clinton's should be tried for murder! But they won't!

I can't use the "to protect you" line! Years ago, we heard a noise downstairs and somehow, she went down the stairs ahead of me and I had the gun......She never let me forget that night! I tried to explain that that's how it's always done and she was my cover but she did not believe me!

Like I said " For me, it starts when they f**k with my family or come to take my shit!" THAT is my Geritol!

You old fart! You still have the stamina for that! I don't know about you but Samuel Whittemore we are not! For me, it starts when they f**k with my family or come to take my shit!

Very much allied with him though! @Sniper you don't seem to like or trust our President and you are very quick to criticize him at every turn. Have you decided who you will vote for in 2020? Biden, Pocahontas and crazy Bernie are your choices! Choose wisely my friend since all of them want your guns! Trump supposedly is "CONSIDERING" some things we may not like but that does not mean he will go along with the idea! This could all be part of a game Trump is playing that in the end will STOP the AWB! We are not in Trumps head and we owe him the benefit of doubt until we learn otherwise! You fail to face the fact that although far from perfect, Trump is the best we are going to get at this time! Join him or join AVB and Greenie and vote Democrat! YOU CAN'T HAVE YOUR CAKE AND EAT IT TOO! Yeah, it sucks! But those are our choices and we can't change that fact! Join us or stand down, PLEASE!

If Alex Jones and Infowars is the only media discussing this. I take it with a grain of salt! I believe this whole thing is being exaggerated to manipulate us! I will wait for more to come out before I press the panic button!

I want NOTHING from them!

FIFY!

The CEO posted the whole story on his Facebook page. Most comments are pro 2A and anti Walmart! Don't forget Sam's Club! I just renewed my membership there unfortunately but BJ's here I come! Like others here, I have not walked into a Dick's store for years. Walmart and Sam's is just the same in my book now! Here's a link to his Facebook page. Let him know how you feel there as well! https://www.facebook.com/dougmcmillon/posts/2669333629960730?__tn__=K-R

Incidents like this are the very reason why we NEED firearms!

Funny thing is even with a ban and confiscation, there will be millions out there still available to those who want them! Taking guns away from good, honest people won't solve a damn thing!

Even the PRNJ is not that stupid! Banning all semi autos would surely not be upheld by the Federal courts or SCOTUS. Remember that every day that passes, the Federal Circuit Courts are becoming more conservative. Keep the faith. Things are stacked more in our favor today than they have been for decades!

Wait till someone loses their job due to the call! The state gets sued, loses and that's the end of those calls!

I have faith the Walton family loves our Country and our Constitution as much as I do! I am not worried!

We are ignoring the fact that the Antis only ever mention the NRA. The NRA was and is always the main defender of our gun rights! Okay, so the PRNJ sucks and many blame the NRA for not looking out for us. Nobody can deny that the NRA has always been the #1 organization to defend the 2nd Amendment rights of gun owners in America! I put some thought into this! NY is after the NRA. Dems are after the NRA, Wayne La Pierre's wardrobe spending is leaked at the same time that there is is huge anti push to outlaw and ban semi automatic guns. Is it possible we are cutting off our collective noses to spite our faces! I too am guilty of turning my back on the NRA and not renewing or donating to the NRA......Is it possible that this whole NRA fiasco is being orchestrated BY THE MSM, DEMS AND ANTIS? A plot to weaken our strongest ally at a time when we need them the most? I AM NOT TAKING A CHANCE THAT THIS WHOLE DESTROY THE NRA THING IS NOT BEING ORCHESTRATED! I WILL IMMEDIATELY RENEW MY NRA MEMBERSHIP AND CONTINUE TO DONATE! La Pierre met with Trump and Trump backed down. That's enough for me! Wayne and his nice suit have my full support from here on! NICE TRY YOU ANTI PRICKS....I ALMOST FELL FOR IT!

YES! YES! Hope this helps! "The .223 Wylde has the same chamber angling as the standard 5.56 chamber, so there's no problem with pressures, and it also has a .2240 free bore diameter. ... You have a chamber that can still handle the hotter5.56 military cartridge pressure, and you get the accuracy when shooting the more accurate .223 cartridges."

Personally, I would reload with such a minor nick. certainly not severe enough to cause a problem IMHO!

My bad! The 1911 will be in the next ban if they get this one. They don't want us to have ANY guns!

My Son told me he was going to have a massive yard sale with all my guns and ammo, and give all the money to his Mommy! I told him to go for it and Mommy can visit him in jail! Traitorous little Bastard! Some beautiful wheel guns there Bob. I love my 19-4!

Pics or it didn't happen!

For the first time in my adult life, I am not a member of the NRA. If and when the get their shit together and clean house, I will gladly join again! I let them know why they lost me and since then, not a single email asking me to join or contribute. I guess they didn't like what I wrote to them!
