Quote HistoryQuoted: Just wanted to note that my issue wasn't with a FM-9 upper. I had issues with a couple of Macon Armory barrels with Rudy replaced after he wound up getting new reamers made which solved my issues. My bad. Well it seems like my FM9 barrel has the same issue as your old Macon barrel. Glad he made it right. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I own one in 16 inch. Bought just the upper and disregarded their buffer/spring advice from day 1. Have the Macon buffer and carbine spring. They do a weird thing where they recommend a 308 spring that changed the timing of the gun then get you into their proprietary length/proprietary weight solid buffer to work properly with that. Upper itself seems fine but tuning recommendations Seem more geared towards selling you their parts than running the gun optimally. Not having a good time with my 1st FM upper either. Thankfully, not a kaboom. Glad OP is ok. I have been emailing with them & they clearly did not read what I sent & started trying to sell me their buffers & 308 spring. Unreal. I've had enough of that so I asked them if I could send it in so they can diagnose & resolve the issue. If not, buy it back as I cannot return it to the vendor I bought it from now.
