An LMT-E carrier is on my list, as well as the BCM A5 kit +extra A5 buffers.
I've seen several fail. As in 4. Personally. And the only one that hasn't has literally never been toggled from the suppressed setting in a lightly used gun with an Omega 30 (a low backpressure can).
I'm a fan of gemtech, but I prefer to regulate high pressure gas at the gas block instead of stopping up an inherently poorly-sealed gas system. The gas tube to carrier key interface forms a really leaky manifold. Perfectly acceptable as the design compensates for this in terms of gas volume. But emplacing a significant downstream restriction like an orifice inside the key/carrier causes LOTS of leaking around the gas tube/carrier key interface. And I'm not really confident that it's a good thing for the gas tube in the long run.
I can give more info via PM. Not here to trash anybody.

K- thanks.
Per Ardua ad Astra.
STS - gone but not forgotten.
Because if the AR was short stroking, the bolt would not push the round up out of the mag.
In addition, the bolt has ridden up over the base. This is caused by something blocking the fresh round from feeding into the chamber. The only object that could have blocked feeding is the empty case. The only way the empty could block feeding is if the extractor lost control of it.
Sometimes, when the extractor loses control of the case, it blocks feeding but gets knocked out of the action, giving the appearance of having been ejected.
Two things will keep an empty from being ejected. One, is the extractor losing control. Two, weak ejection. In this case, it could be the ejector, but a bad ejector usually results in a stovepipe. Added to that is the fact that AR extractors usually go tango uniform before ejectors do.

I'm uncertain because I haven't run into that problem with an AR yet.
But to speculate-
- If the cartridge does not rise up soon enough, the bolt will not catch the rim. If the bolt does not catch the rim of the cartridge, it won't push it up and out of the magazine.
- On the other hand, a weak spring can let a cartridge fall out of position. The cartridge can go nose up or nose down. If the cartridge goes nose up, feeding would be blocked and result in a bolt over. I suppose the same could happen if the cartridge goes nose down and bounces up again from the violence of the carrier smacking it around.
In speculation, I can see your point about a weak magazine spring.
