Ok it has been 25 years since I have fired an M16 in the service. I just bought an AR-15 M4 it is a Stag Arms 2H upper on a CMMG lower all new. My question is, "and I can't remember for the life of me" when firing and the magazine is empty is the bolt supposed to lock to the rear? Also does it lock back far enough that when you insert a new magazine and let the bolt go forward is it supposed to strip a round from the magazine. The reason I ask is that my bolt won't lock to the rear unless I manually lock it and it seem that is does not lock far enough back to strip a new round. I most likely can attribute the locking problem to the old crappy mags a friend gave me. I have some new mags on the way. Thanks for any info you might have.
