New low-end AR, M4 clone. With 1, 10, or 30 rounds in any mag the first round hangs on feeding. Open bolt, lock to rear, insert mag, hit bolt release, hangs up about halfway stripping out the mag. Hit the forward assist, rifle goes into battery and away we go. 100% feed, fire, extract, and eject once first round is fed (300 rounds so far)
Clean and lube to GI standards didn't change anything.
Never had a NIB AR before, especially the years I was in the Army. Dug out my old armorer manuals, not much help there. I am thinking being a low-end gun the 4 rails on the BCG could use some polishing or the gun just needs a good break-in. Leaning to digging the finish stones out since ammo price is still bit high for just breaking in.
What does the collective have to say about this?
