I bought a new AR15 SAA pistol upper with a clamp on gas block that keeps coming loose because the two clamp bolts keep pulling out the aluminum threads (third time now) SSA fixed it under warranty but not so sure they want to fix it again, said they will call me back when they make up their mind. They claim I am the only one that this has happened to. I have approximately 200 rounds through it this time around.
Anyone have any idea what would cause this? The only thing I can think of is that the bolts were over torqued. Another reason I thought might be causing this is that the bolts are to short and do not thread all the way into the aluminum block but SSA denies this.
