All parts accounted for.

Re: You’ll Shoot Your Eye Out Kid
That’s not good. But better at the range than on a dark night when you really need it to shoot. Did you check the primers on the rounds that you attempted to fire?LyleW wrote:Went to the range this morning and exercised a couple of 9 mm and a .380....went to shoot the M&P 15 and it would not fire.

Re: You’ll Shoot Your Eye Out Kid
No. Ol doofus didn’t think of that. I’m starting to wonder if the bulletins were too short and the pin could not reach them. Just kidding. These things have that breach assist? Wonder if it needed to be owed to “snug” it in place. I have someone I can call to Nell.

The M&P 15 that's a AR15 clone right? Got to ask safety off and weapon charged right

Floki, oops. Yeah, it was all that. Pulled the trigger and got a click.

Pretty much did all that BUT the forward assist step.

Re: You’ll Shoot Your Eye Out Kid
If the bolt is not fully seated forward, the firing pin might not hit the primer of the round. That’s why I asked if you had checked the primer for indications of a strike. Another possibility is that the tip of the firing pin is broken off.

Re: You’ll Shoot Your Eye Out Kid
I haven’t pulled it apart yet. I hope the firing pin is intact...Onlythe second time shooting it. Same batch of ammo. I’ll check the rounds tomorrow. Being a dog bed at the moment.
