I was just breaking down my AR to do some cleaning when I noticed a couple things. First I noticed one of my gas rings had broke so I will have to replace that. Then when I was wiping down my charging handle it looks darn near like brushed aluminum on one side.
I always keep a decent amount of oil on it, I'm wondering wtf happened to cause so much wear on one side?
It's a palmetto assembled upper in 223 with standard milspec parts nothing fancy.
Up until the gas ring breaking its ran pretty great.
Any idea what would cause the wear on the CH? Am I doing something wrong with not enough oil or something ? This upper has maybe 800 rounds on it
