I have run several of the PRI "Big Latch-Military (Weenie)" latch on the stock charging handles for a few years. Is this the item you're talking about failing at the pin?

thanks Zak

Like I didn't already feel bad enough about not being able to make it

Maybe next time it can be scheduled to miss softball season

Ammunition problems likewise continue, with popped primers (indicative of pressure problems as well as bad cases) plagued some. There is no easy answer to this, and it is likely to get worse before it gets better.

Cheap optics produce cheap results. In one case this was a test to see if an off brand tubular red dot would hold up. It worked until the morning of TD2, when it failed big time.

Pat,

Any idea if the ammo was factory or reloaded? Also, do you recall the pedigree of the cheap optic? Are we talking NcStar/airsoft quality or are we talking something a bit higher on the price scale?

The optic was a millet red dot I think.
