Was shooting my 243 today. I have 28 rounds shot and the last round today the ejector, spring,and retaining pin fell out of it, and was laying on the bench. The roll pin looks bent and not very big like it may have been too small to begin with.
Has any one had any trouble like this with there rifle?
Also the brass is coming out of the gun with big scratches on it, from the feed ramp or barrel ext.
Fixes or comments welcome.
Thank you

That's a first for me. I've owned 5 different AR10-type rifles, and practically all my friends have one or two.

Scratches on brass=normal, depending on the severity.

Self-disassembling bolt assembly, never.
