"Sounds like most places that have been having this issue it’s ammo or mag. Steel case fmj. "
"So I think it is the mag and you might want to experiment. " Ding Ding Ding, Winner!
I was using a Century converted 5.45 to 5.56 mag...when I switched to a Russian Izhmash plum AK74 mag the gun fed and ran flawlessly. The converted mag came with the gun; don't know why..but I know why it didn't work. Thankfully another board member here (Nafets) had a correct mag and wanted my conversion mag...so a successful swap ensued. These are fun little guns!
