Hi guys,
I have a Century L1A1 built with a Australian parts kit. I'm not to sure who or what made the receiver but it's an inch gun.
Now, I have had this rifle for years but have only shot it very few times due to the fact that I couldn't afford the ammo because I was a poor college student and all my funds went to my AR's. But here recently I've been shooting it more and more.
Here's the problem, the rifle functions like shit, the two original mags that came with the rifle are the only mags that will work. And when I say work I mean from rounds 1-16 and then it becomes a jam-a-thon. I have tried all sorts of different mags, other inch mags....no success....jam-a-thon, metric mags....no success.....bolt basically runs over the top of the rounds slightly marking them.
The first thing I tried was the Ghille Mod (I think this is correct name), it did help with feeding but the problem is still present.
Really I don't know where to go from here, I'm real hesitant to keep buying magazines that don't work. I will not sell firearms so I have to get this thing working. I want to love this rifle but I'm having a hard time doing so. Help me out guys, please!
