If it's a BM, you can bet your last dollar the carrier key is NOT staked properly, if at all....

Follow M4's comments first before you send it back. Also, issued USGI mags might be some of the worst mags on the planet because they are kept in circulation for too long. I would not generally use them as my "test" mag.
If the weapon has run for you in the past, then most likely your gas key has come loose.

I guess GOD has spoken... or its just more internet kool-aid hype, take your pick. I guess to be uber tacticool, your rifle has to be stamped LMT or Colt. Anyway, good luck with your rifle.
God? No, but people that see TONS of them in training. Have you not read this thread??? https://www.m4carbine.net/showthread.php?t=5263&page=2
Question for you, how many BM's have you owned and what is their round count? How many of those rounds have been fired in a training course?

I have 3 BM's and 1 KOOL-AID (COLT)
My very first BM has around 8000 rounds through it.
My second one is near the same.
My newest one which is a Patrolman's Carbine is nearing 1200.
My 6920 which was bought a month after the Patrolman's is close to 600.
No tacticool training courses.
AND yes I read that thread, a lot of the crap that goes around the internet is hype, regardless to whether or not its this site or the other one. BIAS OPINION! It mainly depends on who is talking. If you get a group of ArmaLite lovers, of course everything else to them is going to be crap. Its the same way with car stereos, tv's, and any other thing on the market.
I never said that BM doesn't have quality issues. But I will be damned if Colt and everyone else doesn't either.
I don't see where some tactical course is going to prove that BM is crap? Because someone else says so? My stay in the Marine Corp 3/7 showed me that Colt has their fair share of issue's too. Even my background doesn't make it so just because I say I seen it and have experienced it.
Bottom line... I am not hear to argue with you or anyone else for that matter, this guy wants to know what he can do to get his gun up and running. That what I am trying to help him with. AND the "computer chair warrior" crap gets really old.
