Uh seems like a lot of problems - anyone going to correct me?

Here we go again... One guy has an issue and suddenly "all of the rifles have problems"

Lol. Agreed. And hey all, let’s not rule out user error just yet. I posted about the FTE’s in hopes that someone on here would be like “Hey Dumbass(me) did you try this?”. Not because I think it’s an inferior product.

My LAR 10 round mags didn’t work well. Troy and Hera mags worked well.

Has anyone had success with other 10 round mags?

Like wolverine stated.....give it a 1000 round break in and they will work perfectly

[BattleRife]

Took the gun to the range today. Fired 20-25 rounds... experienced 4 FTE’s where the fired round stayed in the chamber and new round was stripped off the mag, and picked up. Occurred with one of the supplied mags and one of my Norinco mags (only took two mags).

Any suggestions for me to look at here?

Either the case stuck in the chamber or the extractor didn't get a grip on the case. After clearing the firearm of loaded rounds did the empty cases extract easily from the chamber, or were they stuck in there?

Mags are irrelevant to extraction issues.

Extracted easily. Looks like maybe weak extractor and hot ammo or overgassing. Like I said in previous, extractor spring was shorter than 1 used and 1 new AR ones I had. Swapped on over will try it tomorrow.

If that is the issue contact Kodiak defense for a new one as well.

Removes the extractor spring and compared with a used brownells spring I had kicking around. The WK spring was noticeably shorter. .139 in vs .179. Will give it a shot tomorrow and report back.

The "donut" and rubber plug were in place?

don't own the rifle but had the chance to shake hands and talk to the Kodiak guys and handle and shoot the rifle on the friday at GAT SHOW ...must have been a demo rifle, it had marks all around the ejection area...the trigger wasn't gritty or anything to gripe about, in fact it felt like it was just a nice easy pull.... i only shot 10 rounds out of 2 mags but they dropped free, the gun was light...i totally want one now...not to mention the Kodiak guys were totally nice, i own the sks-15 as well so i had the chance to talk to them about it as well....nothing but good experience from me if its worth anything to anyone... I wouldn't pass any hard judgement on this thing until you've run at least 500 rounds through her.....keep up the great work guys
