When cleaning my AR yesterday I removed and cleaned the extractor for the first time. I had difficulty reassembling the extractor to the bolt body but finally got it in place. I have had absolutely no hiccups with the rifle after just a little shy of 1K rounds.
After reassembly I ran rounds through it to ensure the extractor was working. I did this because I wanted to verify that the extractor was working. I find it is not feeding correctly. I appears to be trying to feed two rounds when I release the charging handle. I have not tried to fire it so it is not failing with semiauto feeding. I have only tried to feed it with the safety on and working the charging handle. It is doing this regularly with different magazines and different brands of ammo. When I do get it to feed it extracts just fine.
I half expected a problem with extraction but would not think there was any connection between the extractor and failure to feed properly. Any ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.
