Strong springs, components with quality finishes and parts that fit properly are essential for trouble free operation of the AR-15 weapon system. Weak or Broken Extractor Spring replace spring that is no longer serviceable. It may be helpful to compare the primer to that of an empty cartridge that was successfully fired. Right-handed shooters use their snake fangs to grasp the handle; left-handers use the right-hand technique described above. When a failure to extract occurs, the bolt and bolt carrier may short stroke, or they may return completely rearward. Accumulation of fouling, soot and debris that are a by-product of firing the rifle itself can cause a failure to feed malfunction by slowing or restricting the movement of the bolt carrier group, causing it to fail to cycle completely rearward. If the stock is rotated out of alignment, then the charging handle can bind up at the front top of the stock. Now, with the magazine out, rack the bolt back, maybe two or three times to ensure youve applied the needed force to the situation. Left-handed shooters should use the right hand to feed a fresh mag and their trigger finger to release the bolt. "Tap" your magazine to be sure it is properly seated. AR-15s are dependable, and if there is a charging handle problem, it is significant. 299 views, 7 likes, 16 loves, 55 comments, 2 shares, Facebook Watch Videos from New Hope Community Church: 4/30/23 I have seen such cases and the issue has been the bolt or a slightly bent charging handle if you are clearing the lower flat top. The charging handle is only operated manually. While this may work, you still wont have a round chambered and ready to fire. If there are massive problems with the rifles frame, it could need more help. AR-15 malfunctions may be due to an irregularity in the performance of the rifle itself, the magazine used to deliver ammunition to the rifle or a problem with the ammunition itself. In regards to the trigger group, I purchased the DPMS LPK and upgraded that trigger by using the JP Enterprises Trigger Spring (yellow), the AR15 Trigger Adjuster, and the KNS Hammer and Trigger Pins Non-Rotate upgrade. To resolve a stovepipe jam that you have visually identified, you may simply be able to sweep across the ejection port and dislodge the offending empty with a simple hand motion. Since nothings really wrong, well deal with it here, as a simple stoppage. Here, again, the strong hand is used to pull back on the charging handle, while the support hand is positioned at the magwell of the lower receiver. This creates a stoppage, requiring additional manipulations. Without a charging handle the user cant load a round into the chamber to fire the weapon. You can not use an AR-15 charging handle in an AR-10 upper receiver because the AR-10 has a larger bolt carrier and upper receiver assembly.
