Then I had another click and no bang. Again manually cycled it and it worked fine. After that, there were no issues.
I’m not sure why but once it got going it was fine. I ran a little over 100 rounds without any issues.
As  mentioned, it’s loud and breathes fire. I didn’t worry about zeroing this time, so I’ll be going back to zero the sights now that the few hundred rounds fired without issue after the first issue.
The folding stock is fine. It’s a little stiff, so it didn’t want to latch and when it’s latched, it doesn’t want to release. But folded, it fits nicely in a backpack. |
Are there light primer strikes? Check the hammer spring. I installed one backwards that resulted in light strikes.
