Might be because the chamber was too tight be cause of the grime..but I’m jst guessing. I know alot of technical stuff but dnt shoot alot .not as much as I’d like
CLEAN YOUR DAMN GUNS! Right after your done shooting them or you will forget and never do it!……….Oh my God I’ve become my dad.😳
Im n 2 fire arms but i suck at shooting 100% understandable
1st vid failure…it’s all pluses from here! ❤️ the vid
On pistols, I have an ultrasonic bath that I literally take everything apart. Dry then air in a can.
Oil/grease depending on the toy.
Every time.
And again
And again
Ohhhhh god
Maybe a drop of oil?
That’s why you don’t let carbon build up for over a year 🤦♂️
Those extractors generally get broken from people loading 1 in the chamber before putting the magazine in to load out of the magazine with the extractor/loading part of the BCG. If you want to get the extra round in your initial load you do a full 30 in the mag, drop the mag, load another round in the mag, and then put the mag back in and generally it needs a hard tap to get it to set in the mag well to lock in place. Hope this helps with preventing future gun failures.
Aye… STI!
Moral of the story…CLEAN YOUR GUNS! Also, performing thorough investigations on firearms is vital.
Hope you never have use that pistol for home defense bc your hearing may not recover for a couple of weeks. I was thinking about doing my own AR pistol in 300 blkout but the ammo price is ridiculous.
Church!
Did you shoot any steel cased ammo
Broken extractors are common on 7.5 inch AR pistols.
You’re going how to explain how to clean an AR, but yet you don’t clean your AR?
what kind of sight is this ?
Great video. Your running a sightmark or whatever who cares. It’s your gun. FB is for giving ppl shit not on here. 1000 rounds or your estimate is kinda asking for trouble. Like you implied a good cleaning and that may not have happened but I’m no metallurgist. I’m seeing mixed reviews on Radical but they say they have tightened up the quality control overall. I still would def consider one. Keep up the good work.
Extractor failures happen usually when using steel cased ammo. Steel on steel can cause stress. Also tight chamber due to carbon build up compounds the problem. Order extra repair parts springs pins extractors & o rings, also bolt gas rings.
50 Beowulf AR pistol
Bad use of the useless forward assist.
I thought a pistol can’t have a stock on it?
i like my sight mark. it works
absolutely
556 or 300 blackout?
I’ma put a compensator on my 7.5 and a tunable gasblock. It’s super fun but I let one go without ear pro and holy shit I’d hate to get into a shoot out with this thing.
is the video still up where you discuss the mods?
Use Flex-Hone
I have a sight mark like that works fine for me. .not as fancy as I’d like but its fine
I’ve heard that these radical firearms pistols can run everything perfect except for seller and bellot ammo. Dont know if that’s what you were using.
What rail are you running?
I have this same model…fired countless rounds through it zero malfunctions!! But I clean every other outing..
7.5 barrel for 5.56 is too short!
I’m looking to order one in a few days. How is it holding up?
This happen on my 6.5 grendel
Hi sir can I borrow your rifle…so awesome rifle
I think you’re extractor got destroyed due to the fact 7.5s beat the shit out of themselves I’ve heard you can ether lower your gas which seems like a pain in the ass or adjust your buffer an buffer spring that’s what I did with my 10.5 inch and she sings a sweet tune of freedom every other weekend
Like your content keep up the good work
Cmon guy, clean your dam AR!
On the Springfield Saint 7.5…they mentioned the first sign of over gassing was the bolt closed upon the empty chamber…time to adjust the gas block. Springfield has it’s manual on-line to read about how to adjust it if you have an adjustable block?
Hi I’m thinking about getting this ar hows it holding up and how’s the recoil? Also what brace are u using?
Is that a Subaru, just curious?
I’ve heard they make their bcg in house now and it is supposedly better quality.
is censorbook going to allow this
Nothing like live firing down into the woods… No problem right lol!!!
The reason it failed is it’s a 7.5” AR. They are notorious for extremely short parts life. Due to the extremely short dwell time of the gas gas system, the pressures that the gun is required to operate at are substantially higher compared to what a longer gas system can do over a longer period of time with less pressure. Put at least a 10.5” barrel on it and you should be good. But even 10.5” guns tend to have half the parts life of a 16” gun.
Damn man I forgot about how awesome the old videos were, I’ve been following ya so long unless I looked it up I couldn’t even guess haha I miss this style video and the old Talon. When I could get him to respond to an email 😉 Lol Hope all’s well man, I’m picking up a Radical tomorrow actually. Should be fun haha
Great video with educational information
It was probably just a poorly made extractor
Happened to me on my 10.5, it was mainly because I shoot steel cased and was really dirty.
The same thing happened to me last time I did my actual pistol qual. Kept getting double feeds because it wasn’t extracting. Turned out it was a bad magazine.
I know you found the broken extractor and that it is an AR and not a handgun, but also check your mags to make sure they are feeding right. A bad feed might have contributed to the broken extractor.
I usually do some basic cleaning after every other range time. A snake bore and clothe and some lubricant. After every 1000 rounds, I will do a major cleaning.
