I have a PSA kit on a Anderson lower. Got the standard PSA FCG in it. After I built it back in the fall I took it out in the yard and ran 3-5 rounds through it. Worked fine. Then on New Years Eve I thought I would save some range $ and run a few rounds through it for a second test. GLAD I DID!. The thing ran 2-3 rounds full auto and jammed. I took it inside to the light. There was an unfired round chambered with a light strike on the primer. I cleared it an tried again and got a 5-6 round F/A string & another stop. Next day I broke it down. Everything looked ok. I had suspected a bent firing pin jamming and firing like open bolt ( as the gun was new). but that was not the case. I did the usual tests. With the trigger pulled the hammer would not lock. with the trigger released it would lock. BUT the difference in the location of the disconnector hook with the trigger pulled or released was maybe 1/16" I can not believe that it works at all. I broke open a couple more AR's for comparison & could find no difference except the depth of engagement with the disconnector. This IS a home build lower But I'm an ex Glock employee & FFL owner and have built my share of guns. I have not pulled the FCG yet thinking that I might just buy a Timminy or Giselle ( sp?). But I have not built that many AR lowers and might have just made a stupid mistake. Advise?
