Hi All,
New to the forum. I got here via a purchase of M&P 10 last summer. I have only had the gun out 3 times since new. Not good. I took it apart and oiled it up. I removed a few filings from the bolt area and put it back together. At the firing range for the first time, the rifle fired off the first 10 or 12 rounds fine, but quickly started to "jam" up. It wouldn't not eject spent brass. It would try to load the new bullet but the point would be blocked. Pull out the magazine and pull back on the charger, clear it out and start all over again. Sometimes, it will not fire the new ammo. Pull back charger again, eject and try again. Took it home, took apart and clean. Gas ring splits are not in a line. I do not detect anymore filings etc. I have been using Mag Tech ammo. I use the same brand in my AR-15 and it works perfectly. I am fairly new to these rifles having the 15 a little over 2 years but no problems even close to this. Questions are:
Is this M&P 10 a problematic unit? I see more than a few issues with it on this site.
Is the next course of action to take it in for warranty work?
Thanks!
