Hi all,
New here and to the ACR.
Are these pictures showing possible problems.
1. The barrel wrench seemd to overtravel past 6 oclock by a couple of clicks.
2. the feed ramp looks like no other. Note the two deep channels cut the show thru the end.
I plan on zeroing in the new scope this weekend (weather permitting).
Thanks for you thoughts.
Oscar

1) I have the same thing on my ACR. It's normal.

2) Those are M4 feed style ramps. Its only those 2 ramps that the bullet makes contact when sliding into the chamber.

Thanks for the reply.
I'm hoping to get a couple hundred rounds down field this weekend to get a trijicon zeroed in.
My buddy bought a couple of POF's both with Trijicons ACOGS. .223 and a .308.
I know he'll be wanting to give me some crap for my choice of the ACR.

Since you have the barrel out now is a good time to take apart the gas piston system and bolt carrier group to clean and lube everything up.

The ACR is so much easier to break down and clean and reassemble.
