Angry The new AR Report

Third shot and the bolt stuck hard with a live round in battery . So much for sighting it in . Took the rubber hammer to it when I got home . Bolt came loose as did the round . Hmm ? WTF . Tried a case ( not hot ) and it stuck also . Placed one in the chamber and it would not go into battery .

Called PSA and the guy asked if I had their lower . I replied NO . He said well there is the problem and we can't guarantee it if not . Told him this was not my first rodeo and that makes no difference . In a stern voice I might add . He said just a minute and came back with send it back on their dime . So I won't see the range again for at least a month now . %#@! *&%# .

So we shall see what they come up with .

A little too late to be asking, but...

Are these reloads or factory ammo?

If factory ammo chambers, but the reloads don't, all you needed was "Small Base Dies" which size the brass back down to factory dimensions.

That sucks. Which psa line did you get? I've had good success with the premiums and I heard the chf line is good to go as well

this signature exceeds the 15 character capacity count

The chf or cold hammer forged are made by FN. PSA also makes some barrels as well.

Tried a factory case from my last AR and it would not go either . ??
