The test today went flawlessly. 100 rounds with 0 issues whatever. Looks like the cleaning, lubing and the manual cycling did the trick.

Carry 3 guns several miles and get back to us. Carry your supporting equipment and ammunition load out you plan to haul. A long arm and a side arm are common and easy to do. I do it weekly. Carrying 3 is a PITA and heavy. Last year on a back country hike, a friend injured his leg. So on top of carrying my gear, I had to sling his Benelli M4 and light pack. So I had my pack, his pack, my LMT MRP, his M4 and my other gear on my belt. That was a long hike back. The 12 gauge is difficult to justify due to the weight of the ammunition. I know everyone here is SOG and can hump their weight in gear across any terrain for days at a time without detection.

glad to hear you got it sorted.

The nut holding the front sight strips easily. I replaced the sight on 1 of my M4's that was stripped and loose from the factory. A replacement nut was $7 + not including shipping. You will also need a 5.5 mm mini wrench, this is the one I used: https://www.amazon.com/Acu-Min-51-1836-Wrench-millimeter-Overall/dp/B004W8D7LU/ref=mp_s_a_1_29?crid=9NTJFCA6XXXA&keywords=accu-min+5.5+mm+wrench&pscroll=1&qid=1648482518&sprefix=accu-min+5.5+mm+wrench%2Caps%2C342&sr=8-29&wIndexMainSlot=25

The Drop Shim Plate is labeled: DX - Right Handed SX - Left Handed The corresponding cast shim labeled DX or SX should then be used after the drop shim when installing these shims between the receiver and the stock. Your sightline should then look like this:

Review your ejector housing. I bet it does not show an ounce more damage. I remain thinking this was not the cause.

Yeah I know. I have the scales,karve,XOS’s ,scout mount etc on a SCAR rifle. I’m not talking about mlok or rails though.I just reached out to them about a G10 textured replacement to factory polymer hand guards. If they’re receptive and people here are down maybe they’d do a run. It’s worth a try! If anybody could do it (and do it right) R.S.’s could.
