Shorty Bushmaster jams

[xdmikey]

She fails to eject but strips off a round from the mag.

I'm thinking failure to extract? Six rounds tops.

I ordered an extraction kit from Wyndham(cheapest place I could find)because I got a lot of movement on the extractor with my finger. Just like moving the a/c tensioner on my truck with my finger but that's for another forum.

Is there a shop in NWHouston that stocks small AR parts because $6.50 shipping sucks?

Thanks

Primary Arms?

Or if shipping is too expensive for little parts, consider it a reason to spend more money and buy more stuff!

 

[xdmikey]

PA is even worse in that I have to pay tax on the shipping!

I'll admit I didn't even check them due to the tax issue.

Some Bushmaster carbines of the early 2000's, were assembled @ factory with the "wrong" barrels; civvy models were fitted with the special "full metal jacket" chambering barrels. I had to learn this the HARD way. Good Luck to you! leVieux

Using the finger test on my extractor it's really lose compared to a newer bushmaster extractor.

This gun was purchased by me used in '95-96 so I don't think it got a wrong barrel installed.

Thanks guys.
My only mistake was in not buying several extractors to take advantage of the shipping costs.

Since I did have the barrel problem and didn't recognize it for a decade, I was just trying to be helpful. leVieux

Thanks leVieux.

At some point this rifle ran well. I'm hoping to make it so again!

This will fix the problem. The extractor should not be easy to move by hand.

Or, if all you need is a new extractor spring and O ring. $4.95 plus shipping = $10.90. Inexpensive fix. I know the shipping is more than the parts, but when you figure in the cost of gas and local sales tax, not that much difference.

Thanks Bozz.

I grabbed another bolt group and will run it. If all is good then I will switch parts around until I find all the issues.

I'm thinking I should have grab be an ejector and spring as well but I'll catch that on my next order.

She ran great with the borrowed bolt and Hotwells was very low key. Ultra super safe.

I was in and out in the time it would have taken me to drive to Tomball, even after catching up with Donovan(sp?)!

Not worthless pretense on years dead threads to fast track your way to self promotion.

This forum and its members value and respect meaningful contribution and participation.

None of which have you provided.

Neither did you answer about your relationship with the LGS you repeated promoted.

Unfortunate start here.

y'all know that for just $10 you can skip the spam posting and just list your stuff for sale, right?
