Re: Problem with new AR build.
I still think it is short stroking and maybe getting a bit better as it gets broke it. I would suggest however, as I think was mentioned earlier, to check that the gas block is actually in the right place. Take it off, look at where the port is and mark that location on the outside of the block with a grease pencil or something else. Then hold it up against the barrel so you can match up the port with the hole in the barrel and then see how it relates with the shoulder on the barrel. The port might just be a little shy of being correctly centered on the hole in the barrel. That could be why you are getting some function but it needs that extra bit of gas to function correctly.
