Hello out there, I have heard some conflicting stories about gas rings. Some say when you reassemble after cleaning you should align the spacers on the rings or (void for lack of a better word.) Others say they should not be aligned due to it sealing off the gas.
Anyone out there help shed some light on this. I'm new to this and am learning on the fly. |

Rslistically it does not matter. Many guns will cycle even without having all 3 rings intalled. (All depending on good gas port alignment and cleanliness)
I don't typically pay too much attention to it but I do try to be sure they are in good condition and slightly staggered for gap. |
