I finally found out why one of my ARs was not running. The gas key was loose I have put maybe 1000 rounds through this rifle. The gas key was staked. I ended up replacing the screws holding it on, per the armorer at the range I was shooting at. But that leaves me scratching my head. Why, with this few rounds, did the gas key loosen up enough to cause malfunctions? I've easily put more rounds than that through another AR I have and that one didn't have the gas key staked. This is a Spike's Tactical M-16 BCG.
