Pull the bolt off the carrier, and using the carrier alone with gas key,confirm that the gas tube is correctly aligned with the key.
Also, since you have the carrier with bolt angle the upper muzzle down ward, start the carrier into the upper, and let it go. If the key sides are too wide for the upper receiver slot, then the carrier is not going to drop free until is mats with the front of the barrel extension.

From there, load on a single round into a mag, insert the mag into the well, charge the mag while leaving the empty mag still in the mag well, and fire the rifle. If the action is correctly stroking, then the bolt will lock back on the bolt catch.
Lastly, would help to know what ammo, since if reloads or sub par ammo, could be it alone.
