Hi everyone, question for the M14 crowd.
I just picked up a new James River Armory (JRA) civilian M14. It's gorgeous, but when I try to "rock and lock" the factory Checkmate Industries 20 rounder in — it doesn't go in nice. I actually have slam it HARD with the palm of my hand, using about 80 foot pounds of man-force.
Just called JRA and they said this is "normal" and the rifle needs to be broken in. Thoughts?
