I admit, this MSAR thing is new to me. How the trigger works is what I don't know. Here is what I do know from my limited time at the range. Please tell me if something is wrong, or it is the way of the AUG trigger. I'll explain this the best as I can;
- Full press of the trigger fires the first round, BANG!
- While still holding FULL pressure on the trigger, (the bolt already cycled) I ease off the pressure. No trigger reset, instead the hammer falls and a round fires. BANG! After the round fires, still holding full pressure on the trigger, I ease off the pressure, no trigger reset, againthe hammer falls and a round fires. BANG! I do this a few more times. Same result. OKAY?
-This time, I give a full press on the trigger BUT ease off of it slightly during recoil. Ease off a little more, I get trigger reset. Press the trigger. BANG! Again, give a full press on the trigger BUT ease off of it slightly during recoil. Ease off a little more, I get trigger reset. Press the trigger. BANG! OKAY?
Is this a multifunction trigger? or is the trigger malfunctioning? I know the FA version works something like that with a full press/partial press method.
I first noticed this during a function test of the rifle after range day #1, then confirmed it on day #2.
I am still struggling trying to get through a mag w/o failures, though. The gas system on HIGH doesn't do the trick. Lots of FTF's (bolt closing part way but not stripping a round and occassional 2x feeds.
