Not sure if this goes here or in auto loader forum but since we are talking about AR's I figured I'd go here.
So I put together my first AR pistol and thought I'd try a pigtail gas tube. Needless to say the gun didn't like it at all. Wouldn't even cycle the shot case out of a 7 1/2" barrel so I went to an adjustable gas block and a pistol length gas tube.
The trip to the range resulted in about 4 put of 30 rounds where the expended case wasn't thrown out all the way before the bolt picked up a new round. So, it seems like I need to adjust the gas cause I'm thinking I may be over gassed.
Sound about right?
