| Just tested my newly home built AR and after the first shot the disconnector doesn't release the hammer. It only happens when i hold the trigger back after each shot, then the only way to get the hammer to release is to switch the selector to safe and back to semi. I shot 120 rounds and about 35% of the time it worked correctly. Any help would be great! |

Or the disco/ hammer hook has a bur that needs to be stoned down I agree with the above reply. The one quoted is what i had on my hammer. I got home from the range with a numb thumb from flipping the selector switch after almost every shot on! I noticed there was a bit of a bur on the hammer which would catch on the disconnector. So when I got home I tried a file or two and that just didnt to the trick. A dremel and a sanding disk cleaned it up and allowed my hammer to clear the disconnector properly. I just tested it this last weekened and everything worked like a charm. Give it a good look over and see whats causing your problem. Be patient, I pulled the FCG out several times myself, as it was my first build and thought I messed something up or read a step wrong somewhere. good luck! |
