YeH, I didn’t think about that. I’m religious in a sense, but I don’t go to church. I’ve looked through most of them, at least the ones that popped up when doing google searches for M&p 10 feeding issues, short stroking issues etc etc. When I get more funds I may just rebuild the rifle if I can’t get the issues worked out. I saw a two video series on YouTube where a guy was having short stroking issues, and he said that the break in period is a MUST so hopefully after a thousand rounds or so, it will clear up. He also installed an adjustable gas block, so I don’t know. Still hoping for more replies. That brass CANT be normal.
