My AK have never jamed but my M4 has.

My AK have never jamed but my M4 has.

You know that's quite the opposite of me.

My AK jammed a few times within the first 450 rounds, but my m4gery jammed about once or twice after I ran around 1500 rounds through it. A bit ironic.

I joined the site awhile back and have not been on here much. I have to admit I keep coming back to this thread just to see what everyone's got to say. I've had ar's and ak's jam. I really would not use the picture of this odd occurrence to say I won't own an ak.

I know what the problem was. The disgronificator needs to be fixed. Or else it was a homeless Communist Gremlin.

You might want to check the magazine feed lips. I have in my possesion a Circle 10 mag that is cracked down the front of the body, and the feed lips will spread just a little when it is loaded. The crack on the one I have is pretty big so maybe you have a smaller crack. Maybe the extractor is getting weak? Just because it ran ok the rest of the day I would not assume there is not something going south in the gun and/or magazine.

wow

Its because those tac rails were installed on there, it must be the only problem, otherwise it would not happen.

... until they do.

Preparing some photos for my Iverson AK course AAR, and thought I'd share these separately. The unfortunate victim was our very own akaindy. I've never seen anything like it. Henk hadn't either. Immediate action had no effect; time to transition to pistol, or transition to Nike!

There is a 99% of the gun going off when you pull that trigger. You got the lucky 1% and the extra .5% triple feed

Something somebody pointed out: The only way this could have happened is by hand. Looks like a light primer strike on the top round, shooter short cycled the bolt twice by hand and jammed two rounds in the chamber.
