Like everyone said, check the headspace. Do not shoot until you get this done. I watched a video today of a guy shooting a century arms ak. It was not properly headspaced and blew up after about 5 rounds.

lol, I dont know what that will give me. Im assuming I need to order a headspace gauge (not sure which one), check my bore (or my BCG?) and then once that info is gathered, it will tell me what exactly? What course of action do I take after that. I am calling PSA today, and I have a feeling I will get a "ship it back to us response" so hopefully they take care of it, but if I get the run-around, I will have to DIY. I am just ingorant to what is needed and what the gathered info will tell me exactly.

Video I referenced. And if you do not want to deal with it, take to any gunsmith.
