| So, I finished my first build, Noveske lower with PSA Moe build kit, spike BCG, BCM charging handle, PSA CHF midlength 16 upper. my problem is that the first few rounds went off great then "click" nothing. The round had chambered but the firing pin did not strike. SO I go to extract the round and it is very hard to get out with CH. My question is does this sound like a buffer tube too heavy? I'm at a loss. anything would help. |

Quoted:
They were reloads and no, I did not check headspace. I guess I got too excited. A Blivit is ten pounds of shit in a five pound bag Your chamber is the bag and your cartridges are the shit. How much shit you can put in your chamber is governed by the chambers diameter and length. If you cartridge cases are not resized properly and are too big for the chamber you have a Blivit. Make sure your resizing die is making hard firm contact with the shell holder and the resized cases fit properly in a case gauge, "and you won't hear just the "click" 
If the resizing die does not push the shoulder of the case back far enough it will not chamber properly. (a fired case is a Blivit and a properly resized case is no longer a Blivit AND it will fit in the bag and not cause any shit)
