I was just about the say "don't forget the leather piece to keep the grip safety depressed."

Stunning work. I can't wait to have the time to hand engrave. Looks like it would give some real satisfaction in the results of that work.

I'll state up front, I'm no AR expert.

I love to read these discussions because it helps me understand the AR much better.

With that said, I've noticed a pattern when people give their opinions on what causes malfunctions.
They tend to pinpoint three things:
Gas volume.
Buffer weight.
Buffer springs.

Then there's shitty magazines, ill fitting cartridges and just plain pro ammo choices.


Above, ^^^ the discussion is trending towards buffer rearward speed and return to battery speed.

If a piece of brass fails to clear the ejection port then we get double feed, stovepipes, and even sometimes a nearly rear facing piece of brass.

Dirty (filthy or dry) rifles tend to have more malfunctions than properly cleaned and lubed rifles. Of
course we're all aware of that.



Okay, so where the hell am I going with all this?
When a rifle tends to have feeding issues we look at the common causes. Because these are so common, we tend to overlook some small things we take for granted.

All of the pieces have to work in harmony with each other at the correct timing. If a buffer comes back a nanosecond faster than it should, it narrows up the time each part has to do its job properly. The theory being discussed ^^^^ up there, is that the buffer also returns faster, therefore reducing the travel time.

For the sake of discussion, let's agree for a moment that it does move quicker.
Once we speed up the timing, now two more pieces have to also speed up. Those pieces are the extractor and ejector.

The ejector has to quickly (now even more quickly) kick that brass out the little ejection port.

Of course, the ejector can't do it's job correctly if the extractor doesn't do all three of its jobs correctly and in the proper amount of time.
The extractor has to first, pull the brass from the chamber. Next is hold that brass on the bolt face until the case mouth clears the port. Once it clears the port, the ejector tries to flip the brass away while the extractor is pivoting and releasing the brass.

I believe a lot of issues revolve around weak ejector springs and worn/shitty fitting extractor.

You can test your ejector strength (rebound speed) simply by inserting a piece of brass in the bolt face and see how far it flings the brass.
If you want to be scientific about it, pin the BCG or just the bolt face down to a board and fling the brass into sand.




I'd love to be able to do high speed video to test the BCG/buffer speed in relation to gas volume and gas speed.

Along with that, the video could show the operation and speed of different ejector/extractor combinations.



Just my post-second cup of coffee ramblings.
I think I'll go take a dump now.

Howa don’t usually offer parts like that, you will likely have to have it opened up by a smith or scavenge one off someone else’s action.
I say to buy a second action.

Lots of pertinent questions! And then DeathBeforeDismount's comments, lol, although he does actually indirectly touch on a relevant point.
The amount of reloading I will be doing is not large - probably around 50, maybe up to 100 rounds a month. I know that I won't get to the point of net money savings for quite some time (although I will be saving between $1.20 and $1.80 per reloaded round); unfortunately, I have to drive at least an hour to get precision ammo. Following up on that, I have a flexible/irregular schedule and work from home about 50% of the time (IT consultant), so downtime is something I generally have plenty of. Plus, I'm a diagnosed insomniac. As @91Eunoz was saying, getting the right ammo has been problematic, so being able to produce it myself would be nice.
Regarding accuracy: I am able to hit 0.5MoA 5-shot groups, but not every time. I know that I don't need handloads yet, but they can't hurt.

I already have brass brushes (among other cleaning supplies), metal tweezers, and hand and power tools.

I looked at the AGS annealer that was recommended, but am leaning towards the Burstfire Gen 2 Annealer & Prep Center due to it's greater automation and the powered tool stations.

@fedupflyer Thank you for the tip regarding air movement/dust covers. I was already aware, but appreciate it nonetheless! I have found the Ohaus Scout available used for $200-250, so I'm thinking of grabbing that. My plan is to use a scoop or cheap dispenser (like the $25 Lee Precision Powder dispenser) to get close to my desired charge, then finish it manually with a trickler.

"Alito continued to note that the Supreme Court issued this decision, though it was “not clear that the Court had jurisdiction.”

“The All Writs Act does not provide an independent grant of jurisdiction,” Alito continued. “See 28 U.S.C. §1651(a) (permitting writs ‘necessary or appropriate in aid of’ a court’s jurisdiction); Clinton v. Goldsmith, 526 U.S. 529, 534-535 (1999) (‘the express terms’ of the All Writs Act ‘confine the power of [a court] to issuing process ‘in aid of’ its existing statutory jurisdiction; the Act does not enlarge that jurisdiction’ (quoting §1651(a)).”

Alito added that it was also “questionable whether the applicants complied with the general obligation to seek emergency injunctive relief in the District Court before asking for such relief from an appellate court.”

“When this Court rushed to enter its order, the Court of Appeals was considering the issue of emergency relief, and we were informed that a decision would be forthcoming,” Alito added. “This Court, however, refused to wait.”

Alito continued:
