As the subject says. The brake was locked into 1 of the 2 notches with the brake to the right. Upon dumping a mag, I noticed the brake was gone and I was left with exposed threads. After the range went cold, I found the smaller piece just past the...

This damn thing won't fully chamber a round. Cock it back and let it go it picks up the round in the mag perfect but doesn't have enough force to close the action 100%. Shot it and it jams 75% of the time, because of FTE. It accepts t...
