I might have posted something about this before, but I think I might need a refresher. Getting a strange malfunction. Not even sure how to classify it (FTL?). My best guess is that the spent casing isn't extracting fully and getting in the way of the next round, which then goes perpendicular to the barrel and the bolt smashes it into the breech. So when this happens, I lock the action open and pull the mag, the spent casing drops out of the magwell.
This happened before. Someone suggested getting a new extractor spring. I replaced both the spring and the extractor itself. Still happening like once every 3-4 mags, but yesterday was terrible. Like every 5th shot. Gun is clean when it happens. Also, the pic is of a flat nose, which the gun didn't like, but it happens on round nose as well. Casing looks fine--no weird marks. Just the bullet pushed in from being crammed in there. No weird marks on ejector either. Any ideas? Could just be a sh*tty clone out of spec.
