    Default My AR-15 is Jamming... WTF?

    Last night while looking over my ar15 I decided to cycle a few rounds from the mag through the rifle with out firing. (was bored I guess) I noticed one round cycled then the second and then on the third pull..

    Wham!@ blam %^(* jam! (maybe not that dramatic... but still) Blam @$** JAM ***!

    I pulled and pulled and pulled on the charging handle with no success. I took the upper off the lower and tried to pull agian, still nothing. That leaves magazine malfucntion outa the question. I took a flat head screwdriver and used a bit of leverage to dislodge the bolt&charging handle from its stuck location. It didnt take much at all which confuses me because I pulled as hard as I could and it didnt budge, but with a small amount of well placed leverage it *poped* right out.

    After removing the round and reassembling the gun, I pulled the charging handle and with no issue it went all the way back and sprung forward.

    I reloaded the magazine with the two rounds that cycled through before and put the magazine back in then pulled the charging handle. (Just to see if i can duplecate the problem, I certainly duplecated it) This time no rounds cycled it just jammed. so now im like wtf..

    Anyone have any idea wtf I did? Also I just got back from the range the day before and I put maybe 100 rounds through it with no prob.


    Charging handle pulled back with the mag in.

    ofc =D

    Rawr cant open it.

    took it apart and got it to open this far.

    Used the flathead got it open.

    opend it half way, the round didnt seem to have any damage.

    then a final look inside.


    Ill post the rest of the pics later tonight when my email wakes the F up and recieves them from my phone =D.

    Thanks in advance for any help!!
