Never had so many issues with a gun but I have learned a lot of what I needed to but my 6.8 is ready to rumble...almost..need a sling set up.
Dpms 16" Gas port was undersized..short stroking, drilled it out 3 times with trips to the range each time. I cut down the sight and made it a low profile while I had it off. Also was double feeding and failing to eject. Ordered a hone and cleaned the chamber, it was full of melonite, neck had scratches pretty bad. Honed the neck area too.
Back and forth to the range changing this, fixing that, new magazines, did not fix problem. Checked bolt(new PRI) unfired, couldn't be that. Finally a new PSA bolt and she fires and ejects nicely!
But...trigger won't reset, what the??? Spikes Punisher lower with stock trigger. Trigger was nicked badly and manufactured wrong, seer area was double grooved, very strange. Replaced with another tonight and tested it and it resets eve ry time. Now I must kill somthin'
