everything checks out ok, but does run the greatest! it runs like a top with my other upper, just not my 20". it was extremely reliable with the 11.5x5.5 that was originaly in the upper that now has the 20" in it.

don't want to sell it!  would like to tune it up! ftf, fte,ftl.this is the 3rd 20" I've had problems with. never had a lick of problems with any of the carbines that i've built, my buddies AR that we just built is a junker and runs like a top, no matter what ammo, mags is just flat out works 100%. he bump fires mag after mag no prob.  mines is a jamomatic.  what really pisses me off is that it still if my favorite rifle even after all the bullshit with it.  I just hope i wont need it to save my life cos right now it wouldn't

Try swapping bolt carriers first, then bolts, then check the gas tube by the front sight.

I thought I loved my Colt AR-15, but now that I want to upgrade to M-16 and realize it has a sear-block (and suspect it has wrong-sized pins), I'm not sure I love it anymore.

Your all retarded.
My bushy hasn't jammed, FTF, FTE, puked, shitted, bla bla since I got the mags broke in.

Do we really need to have this discussion?
I feel that those who say these things are bitter because they spent $100-$200 more the same exact rifle.

And if you choose so, put a 3 round burst, or fully auto in your bushy.

Bushy's got it going on!

I believe unreliable prebans are worth about $700.  Although a little steep for me, I think I have enough money this month to relieve you of its burden

I've never heard of Mags requiring "break in"

What recoil spring and buffer do you have installed?

Although you've probably already done this, oil the hell out of the ejector and work it back and forth with an EMPTY cartridge case. This worked on mine, I haven't had a jam since I did it.
