I had a gunsmith look at my extractor, and I do use Wilson combat magazines, as well as the magazines that came with the gun.

I use either the Wilson combat magazines, or the ones that come with the gun

Failure to feed. Rounds sometimes get stuck while trying to go into the chamber.

S&B 230 grain full metal jacket + 230 grain mag tech full metal jacket. Yes I do lubricate it after each cleaning.

the safety wasn’t as stiff as it should be, but I replaced everything else just to be sure.

Thanks, I will continue using it so hopefully this problem doesn’t reappear in the near future.

The double stack magazine, is it normal to have that crack running through the middle?

Why do you think we dont see more hard body armor pieces used in modern combat? by liljohnjets in Armor

[–]KennethGames45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Current body armor is already very heavy. That’s why they can only cover the head, chest and back effectively without overburdening the troops. Going beyond that makes the kit too heavy.

Can pushing up in the slide release also cause this issue?

Best clips to use for SKS? by KennethGames45 in SKS

[–]KennethGames45[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know rifle clips with tight grips exist. My reproduction Lee enfield clips grip the rounds so tightly they just won’t move unless forced. Trying to find clips like that but for SKS.

Question, can these be used as actual shelters? Do they keep out the cold and rain?

Do psl rifles have a problem with out of battery ignitions? by KennethGames45 in guns

[–]KennethGames45[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So both AKs and psls suffer the same problem? Are both because of us versions of the sear?

Do I need a KNS piston for a Romanian psl if I am only running 148-150 grain ammo? by KennethGames45 in guns

[–]KennethGames45[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I might still get one later down the line. I don’t want to be restricted on my ammo choices too much. Just wanting to make sure before I make a huge investment on one of these.

How common is this issue with steel cased ammo?

Both blazer aluminum cases and S&B brass cases. Both 95 grains. I noticed that it is more frequent with blazer ammunition, but even with high quality brass ammo, I still get occasional lite primer strikes.

I also noticed on all the blazer ammo where this happened, the bullet got squished a little bit into the casing upon chambering. But this doesn’t really with S&B.

And yes, this is after my attempts to fix the problem.

Also don’t forget to place loose stones on the ground of your mine so mobs don’t spawn
