[QUOTE="NightShade, post: 2737188, member: 29706"] Had kinda the same issue with mine when I first took it out after it was built. Didn't have light strikes but it would short stroke and fail to feed. Hosed it down with clp and when it was dripping I fired a round or two and hosed it some more. After doing that it got a name and was good to go since, I call it the "Greasy Pig" cause once it's at a point where it wants to fire clp is dripping off the damn thing. I would suspect that a slightly tight pin on the hammer without any lube would be part of the reason for light strikes and as it ran you started to get a little lube down in there. Pull the pin on the hammer and put a little something on it then drop it back in or spray a little clp on the hammer pin and work it to get some lube down in. Then hose the BCG down and run it wet. I have a nickel boron carrier and it still had to be very wet to operate correctly. [/QUOTE]
