I emailed NLA but being a friday im sure it will be s few days before i hear a response.Minimun you need to talk to a rep from the maker and probably send it in. If you drop the bolt and it doesnt go into battery something isnt right.

No, seats fine without a roundAt this point, this.
Hard to work through it without being there next to you.
If the bolt without a round in it will not fully seat in battery, I think that's what your last post said? Then there is definitely something wrong.
If the bolt and barrel are Tromix, that's good. They make good stuff.I got the 18" and its definitely a tromix barrel. But i cant get the bcg to seat all the way to begin with, so i dont see how the ejection port can be the problem, as it hasnt even come into play when the problem starts. Also it doesnt come into play when the cartridge is stuck to the bolt when i get the charging handle pulled back.
Ive tried 2 different types of factory ammo.
Shoot the hell out of it ITS NEW. Took about 100 rounds for mine to smooth out.Having this problem with my brand new bushmaster upper. Wouldnt close all the way, i pull back charging handle and cartridge stays in chamber. I drop charging handle again and push it in, VERY hard to pull back, when it does, the cartridge comes out stuck in the bolt face, scuffed up brass when i pop it off. Switched ammo types and tried again, only this time i cant pull the charging handle out, its flat stuck. Im new to ars, so not sure what to do at this point with not being able to pull the charging handle back to clear the round. I bought it as a complete upper, and its clearly been test fired.View attachment 678918
It wont shoot. The bcg wont even close completely.Shoot the hell out of it ITS NEW. Took about 100 rounds for mine to smooth out.
I thought you could force it? Mine did the same thing, scratching cases and getting stuck. If you can get a few to fire for ya that will really take the edges off and break things in.If your playing with it at home , make some dummy rounds up so ya don't shoot the cat.
No that would show anything except it drops in and out freely. It's a straight walled case. It headspaces off the neck. It would literally only stop at the neck on the case. If the headspace is off or tight this won't be noticeable until trying to chamber a round with the bolt behind it.With the bcg taken out, i can drop a cartridge into the chamber and drop it out no problem, no friction. Wouldnt that indicate that the problem is with the bolt, not the chamber?
The bolt has no markings on it to indicate which caliber it is intended for, and one thing of note is that NLA's explanation for why it was taking so damn long to ship was that they were waiting on BCGs
