Quote from AK_SGT_USMC on 07/26/10 at 07:02:08:I ran a test on mine to see how many rounds it would take to foul up enough to start affecting reliability. I was firing British Aerospace 7.62 Nato 150 Grain surplus ammo, and started with a cleaned and lubed rifle.
After 18 full magazines or ~360 rounds I had my first FTF, just didn't quite close the chamber. I racked it in, fired, and another FTF. Racked that one in, turned the gas knob up one click and fired the rest of the 500 rounds I was willing to spend on this test without a hiccup.
The adjustable gas system on this rifle is a valuable tool.
that is some outstanding news .. thanks for the report and taking the time and money to do this !!!
did you have any issues with the gun warming up on the cheek weld? that's quite and long string of shooting !!
