I believe that upper is coming back to us so we can get a new extractor in and correct any issues he is having. We do not support the S&W 15/22 magazines, so you will be on your own for that part.......we will get it to run with BDM's TRANSAM.......you still having issues? tim I am running BDMs |

I haven't been able to see that it's dragging on the feed lips or anything else for that matter after I filed down the top of the hammer a bit. It will go into full battery every time when racking it by hand with no mag. That "step" in the collar to the barrel is exactly what I'd wondered was part of the feeding issue. It seems it's too drastic of an entry and the rounds bind up when feeding. |

Mine that I received today in the mail is not fully going into battery as well. I used a small punch to lightly push the bolt forward into battery and after doing this it will fire, then the next round stops in the same place. It seems as if the chamber might be to tight. With no mag/ammo in place letting the charging handle fly it will go into battery just fine. Tried several black dog mags with cci minimag, and federal bulk pack. My Nordic upper doesn't like Remington gold hp's, but I might try it next. I will be calling on monday to see what they come up with. It might have been a bad batch. 
EDIT: Did some more looking into this. Round drops into chamber freely. Tried a 10rd black dog polymer ramps same result as metal. Tried better mag adapter and S&W mag would not push round from mag, not enough spring power. Tried different charging handle, same result...  Still messing with it, need to try a different lower next.Quote HistoryQuoted:

Got the new mag. Feeds MAYBE 10% better. Still doesn't feed properly, most of the time the bolt doesn't go into full battery with seems to be the biggest issue. When I can get it to feed correctly I can get a short string of rounds to fire. I got 3 in a row out of one mag. I don't know what else to do. I am in the exact same boat with the feeding issue, less than pleased.  Bad batch possibly?

Tim fits the collar to the barrel. All my Taccom collars have a smooth transition to the barrel chamber.
