So  I am still experiencing this issue and want to exhaust every possible solution before I take it to a shop. Gun will short stroke causing FTF by completely missing the next round leaving streaks on the brass or it jamming. it also fails to lock the bolt after the last round. I have checked the gas system and there are no apparent leaks to me. I have noticed when I clean the gun brass particles around the barrel/feed ramps and BCG. Is it possible the feed ramps of the upper and the barrel not being "lined" up or cut to match each other would cause short stroking?

Thanks

Details of gun and ammunition are needed to help narrow down the issue. There are many things to check. The first two things I would check would be: misaligned gas block, and broken gas key screws.

AND, under-powered Commie Block Ammo.

Pictures of the chamber/bolt carrier would also be helpful.

It is an ATI Omni Hybrid, I have used the both the 30 round mag that came with the gun as well as a 30 round p mag. I have only used 55 gr remington and HPR vmax.

I have a 20” PSA CHF barrel that was short stroking. Drove me crazy checking BCG, gas tube, buffer and spring, lower specs all that. Pulled the FSP and checked alignment everything seemed good. Still short stroked. Finally measured the gas port and it was at a shade under 5/64ths. A #48 is closer since the 5/64th bit I had removed material. Finally ran the 3/32nds through and it looks really clean. I’m positive the gas port was the issue since it was 1/2 as big as it should have been.
