    Magazine Issues

    I just completed my 1st Grendel build and when I took it to the range for sight in/Zero it would hold an amazing group, Hornady 123gr ELD Match, but I was having a number of issues with failing to feed and bolt not locking back. Based on my experience as a AR Armorer I'm 99% positive it is a magazine issue. I was using AR Stoner Magazines, I think I bought them from Midway if I remember correctly. Was just curious is anyone else has dealt with this same issue or would recommend another brand of magazines. From what I have read this has been the #1 complaint, meaning magazine problems

    I'm not an ar armorer but shouldn't it be locking back on the bolt catch and not the mag?

    You may have other issues.

      Technically yes, but the mag follower trips the bolt catch - so potential mag issue.

      Over gassed or under gassed is also on the list.

      Who made the barrel?

      Barrel length?

      Type of gas block?

      Gas port size?

      Buffer weight?

      Gas system?

      Catchy sig line here.
