10.5" Ballistic Advantage BA Hanson barrel
Carbine length gas tube
Gas block is an Odin Works adjustable - have tried wide open, 1-click off closed and everything in between
Standard carbine spring
Have tried 2.8, 4.5 and 5 oz buffers
Standard BCG and bolt, nothing special
The gun cycles properly when suppressed (SiCo Omega), but will occasionally fail on LRBHO.
The gun fails to cycle properly on every round when not suppressed. Typically it's a fail with feeding the next round. Sometimes it will fail to eject, but the FTF is much more common.
Same issue with 55gr --> 77gr loads.
What would your next step be?
I'm thinking I'll tear it apart and replace the gas block, get a fresh recoil spring and maybe an Xtra power spring while I'm at it.
Do you think I ought to try different buffer weights as well?
