I recently assembled a new upper with a 223 Wylde 20" barrel. It has a rifle length gas port. I put it on a lower with an adjustable carbine style stock. On my first trip to the range the bolt wouldn't hold open after the last round round in the magazine and I got several failure to feed malfunctions. I am assuming that the rifle length gas system isn't sending the bcg back far enough to engage the bolt hold open and is causing a short stroke failure to feed. This is my first rifle length build so I am a little inexperienced with the issues associated with them. My knee jerk reaction is to find a lighter buffer, but any input would greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
