Yellow Boy problem
« on: August 29, 2020, 05:53:52 PM »
I was gonna take the Yellow Boy out in the yard for some plinking fun, but first thing I got a jam. Got it torn down now, will see about how to proceed from here. Geez, if it ain't one thing it's another! :'(

Dremels and guns are usually not a good mix, especially on a feed ramp. Hand polishing would be the way to go.

actually, with the correct bits, you can do a fine job with a Dremel if you have a fine touch.

I think Scobby is on to something. Sounds like a cartridge O.A.L problem.

I believe so Em. Push the carrier down outta the way, and you should be able to get the round out.
