AR-15 won’t chamber next round
I recently built my first AR-15. It’s a BKF complete 14.5 upper with a Muzzle device pinned and welded on an Anderson lower I assembled myself from a lower parts kit. Has a standard carbine buffer and buffer spring. After firing it’ll eject the spent round but won’t load the next round in the magazine. It does indeed charge the gun because I can pull the trigger afterwards and it still clicks. In order to load the next round I have to eject the mag and reinsert it in order to manually charge the gun and allow the BCG to pick up the next cartridge. I was thinking I may need to switch out either the buffer or buffer spring from standard to some sort of combination of either heavier or lighter buffers or springs. Am I correct in this assessment? If not, what could be the issue? If so, what combo would I need to use? H1, H2, H3, Sprinco Blue, Yellow, Green, etc? Any help is greatly appreciated.
