My apologies if this is on the forum somewhere, I searched and came up empty. I recently picked up a Rock River Arms LAR-9. When I lock the bolt open, then place it on the floor - the slide slams home. No, I’m not slamming it on the floor, the slightest hit stronger than a “diffuse an IED-type delicate pressure” will slam the bolt home every time. Also, collapsing the M4 adjustable stock fully forward slams the bolt home too. Hitting the butt with my hand relatively lightly slams the bolt home.
While I’m familiar with the AR15 platform, the PCC 9mm version is completely new to me, and I understand the springs may possibly be stronger in comparison to the standard .223/5.56 components (???). Is this a common thing in the PCC AR? Should this concern me? Is it a problem that needs to be addressed, or simply an annoyance? I haven’t had it out on the range yet, or even cleaned it yet from brand new in box. I’m really not wanting to have to send it back to RRA already. Any advice is appreciated.
