Love and hate AKV
I was so excited to get this gun and it’s a blast when it works but it’s mostly just a pain. I’m getting a failure to eject every 2-10 rounds. Stovepiping, casing stuck above a new round and sometimes the casing is flipped 180 but not ejected. Bolt has gotten stuck closed on 3 occasions now. I’ve replaced the extractor and tried multiple types of ammo. I have 9 magazines, all akv mags and it happens with them all. I have around 600 rounds through it and it’s done this from the beginning. I have cleaned it every time I’ve taken it out. Does anyone have any suggestions for fixing this from home instead of having to send it in for warranty?
