I just directed you the barrel.
Why'd you buy 2 bolt carriers?
These things multiply quickly

Good eye, I didn't, I just didn't edit the order properly.

A sharp eyed viewer will also notice some of those parts aren't 100% compatible.

But I think I can make it all work.

Won't be the flashiest thing ever, but should be bomb proof

Eventually this upper and BCG will be replaced by a side charger. Budget ran dry this go round.

Is that handguard the slim line version? I'm putting one on an 11.5" build with an A1 upper. I want a updated Val Kilmer style rifle he used in Heat. Should look close with an SB4 brace.

Regular magpul moe. I think 2.5 inches wide.

Going to try to do rifle length on the mid length system.

OK guys got a little problem with a 300 Blackout 10.5" pistol I built for my son. He's at his grandparents in BFE Mississippi and it's having issues.

Son says it's not ejecting fired cases. I told him to lube the bolt carrier but he's at the creek away from his grandfather's shop and doesn't have access to lube. So I'm thinking change the magazine, Magpul, he only brought the one. Shooting Aguila ammo.

Thoughts?

Its normally a mag issue, might just have to single feed it if he doesnt have another mag.

Some thing is going on with the extractor. Not sure there is a magazine issue.

Tell him to fire on with out a mag and see if it will eject it.

Magazines cause the most common AR cycling issues. If your rifle is wet and the extractor is good, I’d bet it’s the mag.

Brand new mag. Just took it out of the plastic to give it to him. Magpul 30 round windowed, not sure about what generation.

Any chance there’s an adjustable gas block on it?
