If those ports under the barrel havent been cleaned in a long time then they are prolly close to being completely closed up and are prolly the biggest problem. Also that rubber ring can cause alot of problems if it hasnt been replaced in over a year.

Watch Youtube videos on disassembly. Clean every single thing on it. I break mine down to bare bones every 2 or 3 years and haven't ever had a FTE or FTF. Mine is 40yrs old and I shot it heavily 5-15 years ago. Not a lick of trouble ever and I would take it over any new gun on the market in a heartbeat.

Completely clean the gun. Take the barrel off and get a small drill bit and using your fingers spin the bit inside the gas ports. Replace the Rubber o ring and soak the stainless gas ring in cleaner and then slightly oil. When putting the stainless gas ring back on make sure the openings on the two rings are on different sides of the carrier.

but I've heard it has something to do with the configuration of the metal rings that are under the barrel on the magazine tube that causes ejection problems
