    overall I'm pleased with the upper.
    Forget the D ring and forget the wolf

    I took mine out Sunday and ran about 300 rounds through it and it ran great no real issues to speak of.

    Doc, you mentioned you were having extraction issues, what type of issues were you experiencing? I didnt have any problems with it ejecting any spent cases, but they were ejecting mostly at 1 o'clock, sometimes 12 o'clock, and sometimes it would land right on the table and not go any farther. They all ejected, just not like my other AR that shoots them about 10 feet to the right at about 4 o'clock.

    I went and got some o-rings from home depot and added two of them to the extractor and trimmed them so it fit back in. I will try it out like this and report back.

    Mine came in, too. It looks really great, but I'm waiting for a RRA Chrome bcg to arrive before I shoot it (on sale for $135!) . Range report after arrival.

    I took 25 30rds mags with me that day had first FTE at the end of 19th mag (it was the fourth mag loaded with wolf) was able to get the case out of chamber. after that I was able to shoot 3 more mags without any problems (wolf).
    the last FTE was pretty bad, I couldn't get the spent case out of the chamber and stoped shooting that ar. so I brought home 2,5 mags loaded with ammo and ar with the stack case inside the chamber.

    Glad you got it and you like it. For the money I am really happy with it.

    Broke it in with about 200 rounds, then shot another 500 rounds in a class. Not a single issue. Next time out, about 200 rounds in, it turned into a single-shot rifle. The gas block had loosened a bit, and the gas was no longer being applied to the BCG key. Got a GGG block with folding site, and expect that to fix the problem. Seems like a good deal, all around.

    The original block was held in place by 2 hex-head screws, one of which is missing, and the other just loose. It didn't appear that lock-tite had been used. If anyone has any interest in the block, let me know.

    Wow, thats good to know. I have probably 600 rounds through mine, I will check the block on mine.

    Thanks for the heads up
