My Olympic did that too. Turns out the muzzle brake was loose. Check yours if you have one. If it aint loose it might be crooked. Run a cleaning rod down the barrel and see if it touches the hole in the end of your brake.I took it off and it did fine. It just made too much noise and punished other shooters at the range anyway.

no that's not it. i was just wondering if may be the c/handle is at a different height than an A2 or if the frontsight is different cos it's on a flattop.

It sounds like you have a Colt M4 carry handle (which is taller than standard) with a standard-height front sight base. You need to get a different handle. Find someone with a Bushmaster handle and borrow it, and I bet it works fine. A standard (non-M4) Colt handle should also work, though you'll pay more for essentially an idential product.
