    Actually it does. Found a review video where it shows it. Obviously no evil pin hole and semi auto trigger group.
    BCG is full auto though. Seems like an incredible bargain for under $500.
    What’s the consensus? Palmetto vs Bravo Company?

    So I happened to see a thread on these on Ar15.com.....and I couldn't resist. Not sure If I made it in time - got a confirmation email but saw they are now listed as temporarily out of stock. PSA has been shipping pretty quickly so I should know in a day or so.

    Time for the TW collective mind to help me diagnose a problem

    Spikes Lower
    Aero Upper
    8.3" barrel
    Pistol length gas
    Standard weight buffer
    Aero nickel boron BCG
    Brownells LPK
    Larue Trigger
    Surefire brake
    SBA3 brace


    Will not cycle 200gr 300blk subs...it fires and the bolt ejects the spent shell but does not chamber another round

    Will cycle supers reliably but will not lock open on last round and empty mag

    My initial thought is there's not enough power to fully push the BCG back to cycle a subsequent round with the subs. I was considering removing some of the weight in the buffer

    Would a light spring or buffer likely be the solution?

    Your thoughts on the cause/solution are what I was thinking too.

    If it were mine and i wanted a permanent solution i would get the gas port resized and run an adjustable gas block.

    I dont really want to go that route yet and I'm hoping that it's ok to just remove the weights from the buffer 1 by 1 until it runs

    I'm thinking its undergassed but should run ok if I put a suppressor on it...a buddy has an identical setup but already has his suppressor and his ran beautifully today

    For sure, it is definitely under gassed. Give it a try

    I'd consider 220gr subs, and a supressor to up the gas. Theoretically 220s would up the operating pressure a bit, and a supressor would add gas as well. If you want a more easily configurable solution, enlarge the gas port and run an adjustable block, BCG, and/or a really heavy buffer.

    I would start with something inexpensive like a lighter buffer spring, if that doesn't work then it would be some other issue like losing gas at the gas block or something like that but then you would probably notice that.

    That's fair. I'd definitely consider upping the gas port size and adding a heavier buffer, the AR seems to like 5-6oz buffer weights when it comes to reliable cycling of multiple different loads.
