| So I took my carbine out today & I was having problems with it firing 2-3 rounds at a time. It was usually half way through a magazine. After 70-80rds it started to FTE quite a bit also. It didn't do it every magazine either. Are the problems caused by worn out springs? |
I've worked on 2 carbines to get them running and I had to rebuild both bolts to get them to extract well. They are GI so I'm sure the extractors that were on there were pretty worn but either way, I suggest rebuilding your bolt. That's for the extracting problem. As far as the doubling and trippling, it's gotta be something in your trigger group. What, I don't know, I'm not an expert on those, but I'm assuming it's a worn sear. See if you can buy another trigger group if you want to stick the money in it. As far as your mags, I only use 15 round USGI, the 30's I've had never work and I don't think they're usgi. It doesn't sound like you're having mag problems though, that's usually a feeding problem, not extracting or doubling. What kind of Carbine is yours, got pics???? |
