I took my brother with me to the range the other day. I brought out the M-14 and was letting him have a go with it. He was babying the op-rod and when he pulled it back to load a round into the chamber he was riding it forward. Anyway, the damn thing jammed! it bound up with a round pretty much still in the mag and somehow managed to get the operating rod track to jump off the cam on the bolt!
So the op-rod was all the way forward and the bolt was kinda Proped up out of it's track bound up against the back of the round it was trying to load....
Any one experienced this before? I was pretty supprised to see what he had done. Had to field strip it to rectify the problem.
