Why when I chamber a round is my 15A dinging rounds? I hit the bolt release to chamber a round because I thought I was doing something wrong with the charging handle but still it dings the round. Rounds ejected by firing show only small scratches if any. Thanks for any help.
A friend of mine who’s a police officer has your rifle and has the same problem. It doesn’t affect feeding at all, it just dings the casings. About 1000 rds through his gun so far.
I sent email with pics to S&W two days ago with no response yet. I will call tomorrow. If it was the bolt I don’t see why it’s only the first round I load that sometimes gets the dents. Most times it’s just scratches. I can tell by the sound when I drop the bolt when it’s denting the round.
