My AMD is not fully cycling and after further inspection, it appears that my carrier is rubbing hard against the gas piston hole. This is the only thing I can come up with, my lower rails are fine, I changed redstar arms adjustable trigger to a tapco G2 where the hammer doesn't have any sharp points. and the carrier and rail travel smooth with hand operation. But when I pull up a little when I cycle the gun it hangs up. When firing this weekend and it jammed I took it apart and noticed the carrier was very tight against the top of the gas tube opening. What is the best way to correct this? Will tapping the rails down slightly give me anymore clearance or do you think I should dremel a little on the opening? This is a home-bent receiver so my rails might not be exactly horizontal and square. I think I probably should start modifing to them first.
