    Did you read your owner's manual? That is an adjustable gas block. You should be able to tune the gas block to make the rifle run properly with whatever ammo you have.

    I can stay with my car while it's being fixed. Had a Springfield 1911 stolen at a shipping terminal. Yes insured u would not believe what I went thru and NEVER got the full price of the loss.

    If u read the owner's manual... U will see that the gas metering screw that is installed makes it yep a normal gas block with that in mind the gun should ran without issue, correct?

Thanks in advance also not an issue running the gun with the charging handle without firing just ran 30 rds thru by charging also used Pmags
    Failure to feed combined with dented cases points to a weak extractor spring. Short stroking will NOT dent the cases.
