Hello Ladies and Gents

I have a problem and I need some input.

Right now when I fire my M14 about every 3-4 rounds one of the ejected casings tends to lodge itself between the Op Rod and the rail system.


(As simulated, Did not have any casings or .308 around the workshop)

Or like this



Ill get some better pictures once I am out at the range.

As you can see I am running:
VLTOR CASV-14 Rail System
VLTOR MODSTOCK
Burris Optical and;
M14.ca's Black Arrow Rod Spring guide (http://www.m14.ca/M14_M1A_BLACK_ARRROW_ORSG.html)


I have been looking around the web for any solution to my problem. I found a few that looked promising, (get a new rod spring guide), Cut little pieces off you op rod spring. (Tried nothing changed) etc.

I was wondering if anybody has had the same problem with the VLOTR rail as I have had and if they have come to a simple solution.

I would rather not scrap the Rail if at all possible.

ANY SUGGESTION shall be taken into account. If you need more pictures just ask.
 
What Odd shot said....the issue is getting the bolt apart and back together.
Its a lot easier job if you have a bolt disassembly tool.
 
As a previous poster stated its your ejector and extractor springs that are causing the trouble.

I find the easiest way to disassemble a bolt is with the tool.


Personally, I take one of my soft jaws out of the bench vice and use a cut down fired case to do the same thing.

The Nork springs are pretty hard to compress.
 
So far I took off 3-4 springs on the ejector. And
No change with the casing. Will do the extractor next.
As for the scope mount it's fine no problems yet other then
Said problem
