This is a frankengun i made with a nodak spud lower (NDS-16A1), cmmg LPK, a daniel defense BCG, tapco 6position carbine stock and a RRA HBAR 16" flat top upper, with a carry handle. the upper was filthy when i bought it. i have cleaned the barrel thoroughly before shooting it. (i will not do this again. for now on, if its dirty, i will have to walk)
I have created a doozy of a single shot 5.56MM that cuts the brass in half after every shot and leaves me with a perilous extraction to perform where the next round is crammed into the remaining half of the brass of the first shot which is stuck nicely in the chamber. (when i stripped the rifle and ran the chamber brush through at the range after extracting a partially crushed live round and the back half of the brass i found the front half of the brass on the chamber brush. yikes.)
This is what the final product looks like. Sliced Brass. I left the bent and dinged live rounds at the range, so no pictures.
The range officer suggested it may be the ammo... I changed from Remington/UMC 223 to PMC 223... same results. I dared not fire the xM855 i had in my bag.
Any suggestions on how to proceed on remedying this would be appreciated.
this is not my first build, it's my second the first one actually works fine. not a problem in nearly a year.
