Here goes nothing. So I’ve finished a budget build .223 Wylde PSA stainless upper, PSA lower/magpul furniture. I have not weighed buffer weight but I would make the assumption it is a carbine buffer considering PSA kits ship with Carbine buffer springs. I have tried different mags, .223/5.56 different factory rounds. Nothing seems to make a difference. To me hun seems under gassed it will most of the time eject the spent casing but not pick up the next round and will not lock back on last round of mag. I took upper apart, confirmed alignment of gas block and port (judging by dimple in factory barrel.) I don’t have the little alignment pins. Made sure port was clean and gas key on BCG was tight. Still same thing. Will not cycle for anything. No apparent drag in bolt or funny wear. Gas rings are good and staggered (the whole gun is brand new factory stuff.)
Would I be on the right tract if thinking the only two options here are a lighter buffer spring, or having gas port in barrel drilled bigger? Any thoughts appreciated.
