I had two, one converted and one that I purchased ready. The ready one keeps stove piping (reminds me of an old model 1911 45 I had years ago).

I've had that thing apart several times trying to find out why.. tried several different loads, etc. Ever had to deal with that?
I've seen that happen from cheaper ammo with lower grade powders that don't have enough pressure to push the casing back hard enough to throw it. If you've tried several then I doubt that'd be the problem. The few times I've got to play with that I've ran winchester and had 100% success rate! That gun actually belongs to a Class 3 ffl holder buddy so I haven't had a wide range of experience.

I've also heard of it happening if you don't hold it tight enough and the added recoil of the full auto throws it around a little bit. Limpwristing and/or lose stock both things to look at!

Thanks for that. Have to say I've been around and around with it on the stock, gripping (I'm big with strong hands and arms) and loads.

It does seem to spray real nice on long runs best on me and my friend's home grown loads, which we love to power up (went over board with Bullseye powder once on my AK, though).

I'm thinking of snagging some parts and just trying blind luck.

Out of curiosity can someone tell me how to embed pictures in the message body on here. I tried but I could't get an embedded image from picasa. My pictures are too big to attach them also. TYIA

From Picasa, the easiest way is to right click on the pic you want, select "copy image location", then when you make a post hit the "Insert Image" button
insertimage.gif
, and paste the image location. Hit "OK" and you're good to go.
