BEWARE! Recent AR-15 Problems! – Part 1

Why make the video if your not gonna tell people smh

Milspec complete bcg like a colt 6920 bcg mp tested ect., should all be good to go if they are advertised that way. Shouldn't have go buy top teir bcg's just to predict "better" reliability. There will always be bad apples in even the best parts. My 2 cents! Thanks guys nice video.

Ok boys time to name names. Need to know if I bought one, and need to pick up replacement part.

I do NOT want to appear suspicious or paranoid, however, I have always wondered if the Deep State/NWO gun grabber group would sabotage ar 15 or AK's so they will not work down the road as a round count adds up. Since Obama closed our last lead mine, it all comes from Communist China and who trust them to make quality lead that will hold its weight? I can see them doing this to ar parts. I heard LMT had massive problems with their guns that they sold to New Zealand and it was parts sub contracted out and LMT is TOP quality. Anyway, i do not think it is beyond the gun grabbing NWO people to think like this or place tracking chips in the electronic sights like China did to many US cell phones that was recently discovered.

Interesting indeed

Had the cam pin on a BCM rifle do this within a couple hundred rounds (yes it was lubricated properly). Noticeable galling / bur on the pin, to the point it was having an effect on it's ability to cycle smoothly, just like what you're talking about in this video. Assumed it was poor hardening of the pin… threw it in the trash and replaced with a new <$5.00 BCM cam pin… no problems since.

Had this same issue with double triple and quad feeds and didn’t understand why being the trigger was “drop in” problem was the disconnector was a hair off because the set screws backed out with less than one mag fired. Used blue LT rifle works fine 400+ rounds

Have a BCM BCG with some wearing on the cam pin, less than 1k rounds through it, no problems noticed so far. Going to inquire with them about it

I love how when a high end company is effected by anything, people try to make excuses before stating the problem, but if there's a problem in a more reasonably priced option, people tend to say, "you get what you pay for". 😂

Also, home built ARs have been more reliable than factory built, in my personal experience.

You two gentlemen show class I’m not saying names! Good on you two, high respect!!!

In the race to the bottom the customer is the first loser.

There are some vendors who knowingly use sub par parts because they expect most of their customers won’t ever shoot 300 rounds.

Everything you need to know about the quality of a firearm is in the warranty. An unconditional, lifetime warranty is the way to go.

Bought a AR pistol after Florida deal. Within two mags, I had double, triple and even quad fires. Disconnector was trimmed way to much. Replaced with ALG and haven’t had any issues since. Springfield Armory Saint. Called Springfield, They wouldn’t send me a package stamp and wanted me to pay to send it back to them. Asked them to send me a trigger, still a no go. Even sent them a video on Facebook replicating the issue. Nothing. Spend X amount shipping it to us and we will take a look at it. Wait times were 3/6 months. Brand new gun, less than sixty rounds and Springfield wouldn’t do a damn thing. Spent fifty bucks and fixed it myself. So much for a lifetime warranty. I’ll never buy a Springfield product again.

Thank you. Good observations!

Excellent and valuable video! Thank you!

Thank you for help I’ll check all my gear now

I had the same issue about 2 years ago with the double firing one on press and one on reset it was the disconnecror that was out of spec, replaced it and it was fine.

I know a guy with a budget 3.5lb trigger that worked fine at first but then started double tapping if you lulled and let go of the trigger. It would act like any single stage trigger if you pulled and held the trigger and let it reset slowly. He took that trigger out of circulation for a while. But it would work almost like a binary trigger if you just finger slapped it. This was the one piece cassette style drop in trigger.

So basically ar-15's and I'm sure other patterns of guns are built just like you car or truck. They source parts from many vendors.

Any chance Don will teach another AR 15 armorer course in near future?

good looking out guys!

Thank u for the psa hope it's not bcm. Getting one of those soon

Thanks for the report guys!

If you listen carefully tonight, the sound of AR triggers and bolt carriers will be clanging across the country!

Seen this on a friends new gun, it’s exactly as I figured

What watch are you wearing James?

Thanks for the info… valid points that I’m sure many new, and even experienced shooters, overlook.
