All new springs.  All new magazine springs.  Have some new Korean mags.  All 15 rounds. Still having stove pipe issues.  Bought a Fulton Armory extractor with HD springs and USGI parts.  New USGI ejector with new springs.  Bought four types of ammunition.  Winchester White box , PPU, Federal, Remington, Hornady.  Have some Aguia already.  Heading to the range on Monday to see if it runs any better.  

What else should I do?

Have you checked your gas tappet?

Besides that the only other thing that could be causing issues would be a worn slide. Since that's a Inland I would swap it out with this if the OP still has the same problem

New Inland Slide

Good luck, looks like a nice Carbine.

What ammo were you using when you had the stovepipes? Aquila tends to be underpowered IMO compared to the other brands you've listed

I was using the Agula.  I’m going to use that as well for my testing on Monday.

My suggestion, use the Federal 1st, use the Aquila last. Also, run your mags in "test mode" for each ammo brand. I always run 5 rounds first, then if no problems I run 10 rounds then 15.

Also, while I also use and have had good luck with KCI mags I recently tried these and have been using them as my "shooter" mags

Lately I've been using PPU, mainly because it's decent and AIM Surplus has had it in stock at $30 bucks a box. I live 20 minutes away and try and stock up when its in stock

Aguila is pretty universally crap ammo. Had lots of problems with that- basically a single shot- when it was the only thing available during the scamdemic in my Standard Porducts Carbine. Prvi and Fiocchi ran great with 15 and 30 round mags.

So I went out on Monday and did the five rounds testing. Every bit of ammo, including the Aguila ran fine. Not one Stove pipe, to feed, or failure to extract.  I even had 50 rounds of some mystery ammo that I bought in a brown paper bag at a gun show years ago and ran that through it also.

I bought a new extractor and heavy duty, extractor spring, Ejector and ejector spring all from Fulton Armory.

And it worked well slow firing, as well as mag dumps. Very, very happy with my findings.

Good. If you want to stock up on ammo now I've seen PPU listed on a couple websites through Ammoseek at good prices. I've a case of 1000 coming myself this week and might order another case of 500 next week depending on how much I want.
