- Check the interior of the carrier for defects that might cause the rings to hang up. Nothing detected......
- Replace the remaining two rings with a set of three new rings. - Lube the new rings after assembly, and see if this corrects the problem. |

There seems to be no problems inside the BCG. I ordered a single ring to replace all three today.

You can give it a try, but don't be surprised if it take a hundred of so rounds through the rig until the new ring has seated/worn in/mated to the point with the B/C gas chamber that you don't have short stroking problem. The singe spiral ring can be tight in some carrier, and you just want to keep the B/C to allow break in. |

Are you applying plenty of lubricant on the gas rings before installing the bolt inside the bolt carrier ?

I have been wondering what happens when a ring does not have enough of a gap installed. It seems logical that as the ring heats up the gap closes, if for whatever reason the gap goes to zero something would have to give.
