Hello.
I recently built a 10.3 with DSA arms FSB barrel.
I test fired today and could get it to cycle. I was getting double feeds and failure to lock the bolt back.
I tried running a h2 buffer to begin with and was ejecting at 3 o clock pretty softly and only single shot.
I tried a standard carbine buffer and spring. It cycles better and ejects at 4 o clock but the  bolt doesn't lock back on the last round.
Any ideas.
I also checked the gas tube alignment with the bolt out of the carrue and no drag and is centered perfectly. I have built several m4s with FSBs.

I think it needs more gas and I'm not sure what dsa gas port spec is on these
Any help is appreciated
Maybe @combatdiver can advise
Thanks all

Don't know what gas port size they use.  
1.  Check alignment with FSB and port.
2.  Check gas key on BCG
3.  Check gas rings on bolt
4.  Check gas tube for blockage and alignment with FSB/port.  I've seen stuff drilled off so don't assume.
5.  Verify gas port size, pain in ass but

PS next time @Combat_Diver.  Its anal, not me.

It looks like the DS Arms website states a gas port size of 0.072".

https://www.dsarms.com/p-17126-ds-arms-ar15-mk18-103-556x45mm-service-series-upper-receiver-assembly.aspx

Some of the extraction problems I've seen with non-military short barrels have been caused by the barrel chamber dimensions and / or, "roughness."


My 10.3" Colt barrel has a larger gas port than my FN SOCOM 10.3" barrel and I think the FN is smaller than the Daniel Defense gas port too.

How do the fired cases look?

What ammo? That's the most important question here.

I have that upper and it functions flawlessly with an H2 and sprinco blue. Suppressed and unsuppressed with nato pressure loads.

Do you guys use Blue Loctite (242) on the front sight, rear sight, WMX200 screw and the 2 screws that hold the G33 magnifier to the EoTech FTS Mount?
OR
Do you just install them with no Loctite?
Thanks

They are a removable item, so no loctite.

For you guys with 10.3" Block II rifles, with the UID Labels from Carolina Laser Works.
For the Part number on the UID Label, do you guys put:
MK18 MOD 1
           OR
Do you put 12972700   ?


How do they show up in the wild, anybody has any pics of 10.3" rifles in the wild showing the UID Label?

@Combat_Diver
1) Is MARSOC the only group that uses the Taupe NT4 Suppressor, if not which other groups uses the NT4?

2) What shape UID Label does MARSOC use, do they use a Square, rectangle with round edges or rectangle with square edges.

3) For the Part number on the UID Label on MARSOC 10.3” rifles, what do you see the most of:
MK18 MOD 1

Haven't work with MARSOC guns since 16' in Iraq.  Don't remember the UID if they even used them.  Other SOF units used the NT4 up till the SF RC.

Sorry, I can't answer your questions.  Even on SF guns UIDs get worn off regularly.

I doubt that it's a surplus light. When these were sold commercially you could buy black or the fde versions. They were approx. $350-400 after discount codes were applied from optics planet.

I got my shipping notice first thing this morning as well. I haven't ordered from them, but they are highly regarded on reddit. I'll have to keep them in mind when looking for other stuff.

I was almost not going to bother checking the link in the other thread because it was hours late. Thinking it was for sure sold out. lol

Bolt failing to lock back makes me think overgassed, that the carrier is outrunning the magazine follower.

Go back to the H2 and even try an H3 to see if it locks back when limp wristing it. Also find a colt buffer spring if you can.

DS Arms says the gas port is 0.072".

It could be ammo related, but often it's the barrel chamber dimensions, finish and chrome lining that can make extraction more difficult than usual.

They may have gone to a smaller gas port, but if they say 0.072", it likely is.

The gas ports in my 10.3' Colt barrels are slightly larger than the gas port in my FN 10.3" SOCOM barrel.

At 0.072", it's not under gassed.

And agreed regarding chamber dimensions/surface finish.

Any ideas.
I also checked the gas tube alignment with the bolt out of the carrue and no drag and is centered perfectly. I have built several m4s with FSBs.

I think it needs more gas and I'm not sure what dsa gas port spec is on these
Any help is appreciated
Maybe @combatdiver can advise
Thanks all

Mike,

Are the GP diameters on these 0.070"


I have seen a couple of times where some short barrels accidentally get 14.5" or 16" barrel size gas ports and act the same way.
