Also the BCG is very clearly hitting my lower, so I guess I'll be troubleshooting that with quarters and springs.

Today:
Loaded 8 rounds in mag, exact same malfunction on 7th round. 6th round ejected fine, 7th round bent 45 degrees going into the chamber. My prediction is that the bolt is too fast for the magazine spring. I don't think the bolt is catching the round by the rim of the case, I think the bolt is (periodically) coming forward and catching the round near the shoulder as it strips it off the mag. Bad mag? Its a brand new D&H, five star reviews. I don't have any other mags to test with at the moment. Still not convinced its not the rifle. Put a quarter in the buffer tube as I know for a fact now that the BCG is hitting the lower. Loaded five more rounds in mag, first two fine, third one bent at a 45 degree angle at or near the shoulder while feeding. Last two went fine. Five more loaded.... Same failure, two, fail, two. Any advice here would be appreciated. If anyone is reading this...... |

Usually that means an adjustable gas block (which fixed my issue), or chasing down a heavier buffer & spring combo to achieve slower bolt movement. Edited to add: Does your bolt lock back on the last round in the mag? If so, you’re probably overpassed (bolt traveling too fast). |

Today:
I put in a heavy buffer and spring, loaded eight rounds, and had the usual bolt-too-fast malfunction on round number seven. I got pissed and decided to hell with the gas block, if I break it, oh well. I screwed the screw down all the way. Turns out, it recesses WAY into the gas block in order to shut off the gas. So for those of you who have a PSA gas block.... my determination is that they are of sufficient quality to work, if only just, however they are "rough around the edges" at best, and borderline scruffy at worst. Reminds me of tools made from Chinese pot metal. Anyway, the set screws (both of them) feel like there is sand between the threads when I turn them CW and CCW, but once I got over my fear of stripping them out, turns out they open and close way more than I was doing initially. I have two other adjustable gas block from other manufactures, both of which possess set screws that are smooth and measured in their movement and travel. But I digress. I shut the gas all the way off. Rifle went bang, no extraction, not even sure the bolt moved at all. One half turn open, next case extracted to 4 o'clock (1-2 o'clock for everything up to this point) and bolt did not strip off a new round. One more half turn open, extracted to 4 o'clock, bolt stripped off a new round, but would not lock open on an empty mag. One more half turn open, everything ran fine for two five-round mag loads at this point. Loaded 10 rounds, all ran fine but the bolt did not stay open. Ran out of shooting time. Monday I will open 1/4 or 1/2 turn more and try again. But I may, emphasis on may, have made some progress. Only cost me about $90 worth of ammo so far. |

Gave up waiting for a 20" CHF upper for the PSA GEN2 PA-10 MOE EPT LOWER WITH OVERMOLDED GRIP I purchased fall of 2017. (SKU: 516446483) Upgraded the EPT and put in the PSA 2 stage and also swapped a weight and made it a H2 buffer.
Received my PA-10 Gen 2 20" SS HB with M Lok upper yesterday. (SKU: 516447385) Looked OK. Last night was fitting it on my PA-10 lower and found a few things. 1st It was a very tight fit on the front pivot ears to the upper. Rear had the normal fit. 2nd The bolt catch recess in the upper receiver is not large enough or the bolt catch head is oversized. I will round off the top of the catch with a belt sander to fit. 3rd BCG rearward travel measured. Inserted empty mag and pulled BCG back to catch. Put tape around cleaning rod to have a place to pencil mark it, inserted it against the bolt face and marked it level with the flash hider. Then pushed the BCG all the way back with the rod and marked the rod again. There is a " of travel till the buffer bottoms out in the tube. What I don't know is, what is the acceptable distance of overtravel. 4th Disassembled the BCG and thoroughly cleaned and inspected it. Staking was acceptable, gas rings OK, no grittiness moving bolt in and out, all in all finely finished. Oiled up with Mobile 1. 5th Cleaned the barrel. Looked OK. Sucker is heavy. Mounted Magpul BUIS and sling. Now will have to find time to test fire to check function and stuff. Pics of the buffer and tube on mine. https://imgur.com/9glXLJL https://imgur.com/MDczg03 |

I bought the Gen2 lower with Magpul ACS stock and Gen 2 Upper with 18" stainless .308 barrel.
Buffer was 2.5 in and weighed 3.8 oz (making it an H1? with no markings) 7 in inside receiver extension 11.5 in spring with 29 coils Being that this is my first AR-10 pattern rifle, are these lower parts correct? What should I be looking for when firing? Should I throw in some quarters like others have? ETA: Based on advice in this thread I just added 3 quarters to get the over travel to just over 1/8 in. Fired (only) 10 rounds off in the backyard with no issues. |

I have a PA10 Gen2 that I have had close to a year or so. The rifle in factory configuration worked fairly well but recoiled pretty hard. I did some research and saw alot of folks were going with an adjustable gas block. I got a SLR block and had it installed. I have had nothing but problems sense then. I have adjusted the gas numerous times attempting to tune it and get no where. The rifle constantly jams, fail to eject or double feeds. I am pretty fed up with the rifle honestly. I guess I will take the adjustable gas block off and have to original gas block installed and see if that gets the unreliable POS to work then I might get rid of it.
This has been the most unreliable AR platform I have every owned. Some of that is due to the mods so I guess it was a waste of money should have just sold it without moding it at all. |

So the rifle worked fine, you messed with it and it became unreliable and it's the rifles fault and it's a pos? Just trying to get it straight.

Well, he did get the cool grand tour I put on a Magpul ML MLOK Handguard on mine and fits right in there. Problem is... the heatshield is touching, locked around, a portion of the rear of the barrel by the chamber because that part of the barrel is so large. Guess I'll have to bend it around a little. Doesn't appear the heat shield is touching the sides of the upper section of the handguard though. It might be fine, If not, I'll worry about it then.

I have a gen 1 lower that I haven’t done anything with yet. Can I still buy the LPK and put on a gen 3 upper?

Will a Gen 2 lower work with a gen 3 upper?
Non stainless barrel in the works? |

Just a little update, they refinished the gouged out area caused by the bolt and put an o ring on the extractor spring. That is all they did per the PM I got. Test fired 20 rounds of winchester and are sending it back to me. Guess I will see if it works and add .50 cents to the buffer tube so it does not keep battering itself.
