where exactly is it stuck on thee barrel extension? if stuck between the 2 bullet guides then I assume its the barrel extension, but that is rare. If stuck just below the bullet guide, then try a different mag like an mil-spec alloy mag. Any new rifle shouldnt be doing this at all. Check for burrs on the follower and lips of the mag.

Are you riding the charging handle back down? If so, do not do that. Pull back and let fly. If that isn't what is happening then carry on.

If the tip of the bullet is just into the barrel extension with the bolt locked up (FA will not walk the bolt home), then it could be that the hammer is catching the firing pin collar (if the carrier is not shrouded).

M4 feed ramps? There should be a smooth (or downward/inward) transition step from the the upper receiver extended feed ramps to the feed ramps on the barrel extension. If there is a step up, the bullet will catch.

I tried cheap monarch .223 and remington and 5.56. I took the upper off and it catches even when I use my finger to load the bullet. |

Never ride the handle back down!!!
Either pull the charging handle all the way back and let go, or lock the bolt back on the catch and hit the release button to charge the weapon. |

Loads the round on the right, but not on the left. When I let the charging handle fly back.

Clean up the burs on the end of the barrel extension ramps (tips), and on the under side of the mag feel lips.

I used a file to debur the edges, and it loads a round. But now it scores the round a lot. I will run a few rounds thru it and see if it keeps doing it!
