The Carbon-15 jammed shut at the 7th round.  My friend thinks that he didn't clean the chamber last time and that is why it locked shut. (Or it could be bulged brass from bad hand loads, very unlikely since the round was taken out with no defects.) We had a hell of a time trying to point the live rifle away from everyone while driving it to the local gun smith.
The WASR ran about 100rnds of Tula that day.

(These were not my rifles)

Why did you have a hard time pointing the rifle Down?

We had to point it at a sand bag in the back of the truck... we were transporting it by the truck, we were not randomly pointing it at people.

I'm sorry if I didn't make that clear.

Carbon-15's are low quality. Tell your friend to sell it and buy another WASR

800 for a carbon-15 was a rip off. There going for 599 here and have been for awhile.

Why didn't you guys just fire that stuck round?

ETA: Did you guys try mortaring it?

Good point.



Then again, maybe it would end up being the better thing in the long run.

We just used a mallet...
(He actually payed $550ish for it, the $800 was from the website.)

The locking lugs didn't engage so we couldn't fire it.
