Shot over 1000 on a ruger 556 ar 15 then had a jam up, could not pull charging handle back or place the gun on safety, Instructor easily grabbed the charging handle and slammed the butt of the gun against the table and bullet came out. they teach you gun saftey how to stand how to shoot, reload, and which kind of ammo to use. Not once did they show us how to take care of that kind of jam up on the ar-15 rifle. People should get a class on handling jam ups by all means

It's called mortaring

[@LilShrimp01]

Amazing video, I'll keep this knowlegde in mind! Just had a malfunction with my AR-10 where a live round got stuck in the chamber and would not eject - from this video, I now know it was because the cartridge itself was somehow bent. So I had a live round stuck in the chamber, and the BCG refused to go back, so I couldn't eject it. I can tell you right now, I tried mortaring the dang thing to no avail, this round was not coming out no matter what. Had to bring it to a gunsmith, I told him my woes. Man got him and his bud, and they had to use a brass punch and hammer to literally punch the BCG to the rear so they could get the round out (they punched it via the face of the BCG exposed by the ejection port). The smith said it was the hardest BCG he had to unjam, as the BCG refused to move until he gave it a good strike. The gunsmith surmised the cartridge was the issue, not the BCG like I initially thought. The BCG seemed fine and operational, and the chamber seemed to be undamaged. Upon inspection, the primer had been lightly sturck, but not enough to cause it to go off. The cartridge also had the smallest knick in it, which I assumed caused just enough deformation to the brass cylinder to lodge it in the chamber - though I also suspect this knick may have been caused when I initially racked it. Bought 500 rounds of this ammo, been through maybe half of it, and this is the only issue I've had so far. This happened quite recently, and I am eager to test my gun out soon to ensure it was the round and not the rifle itself. Whatever the case, I've added a brass punch set and hammer to my kit in case such a catastrophic jam ever happens again. Hope this never happens to anyone else, but just so you know...

[@andallthatcouldhavebeen...9175]

Took a friend shooting and they didn’t realize they had a double feed, I’m not sure if the bolt broke before or after, but the second round that fed is actually what hit the primer and fired off the round ahead of it. Glad nothing worse happened there!

[@wormbait1706]

Hey Ive been looking and looking to see if anyone else had this happen, my brother had just gotten an ar and he only shot it once, so I was going to take it to the range with a buddy and shoot it some. The rifle had a double feed, I cleared both rounds out of the bolt and proceeded to pull back on the charging handle and let go and it set off a round which struck a baffle, never had anything like that happen, learned it’s from a free floating firing pin that’s in all ar15s

Good vid, the only thing I'd contest is a double feed is really easy to visually identify after it didn't go boom and racking can make the problem worse. In my humble opinion and how I do it is drop mag, which will often drop the issue ammo, rack to further clear, insert, charge.

ive had a case get stuck in the chamber once at the range. the extractor somehow slipped off the rim of the case, and the bolt was free. but i couldnt get the brass out since i was at the range and didnt have a rod on me or in my range bag. (it was a brand new gun, first time firing it, this was about the 3rd magazine) so i packed up and headed home. as soon as i got home about an hour later, i grabbed the gun and pulled the charging handle back, and the brass went flying out. it blew my mind. i thought i had made it all up for a second. lol. but the only thing i can think of is that the brass might have been defective, and the heat caused it to expand, and stick, and by the time i got home it had cooled down and just came right out. thats the only thing i can think of that happened. since then its been running perfectly fine. with no malfunctions and great ejection pattern.

[@romadur290]

I recommend watching other videos about how to clear your malfunction. Too many things left out in this video. You are completely ignoring that you should always check what malfunction are you dealing with by turning your rifle the opposite way, to get a look on the ejection port. The right way is to first do that, and then decide what to do next based on what you find out. Your way will make many malfunctions worse than they were. You can not clear double feed or failure to extract by just tap and rack. I mean, you may, but there is a big chance you will make your situation much worse. If you inspect that your bolt is not closed/open all the way(does not matter for what reason), you have to find cover, eject magazine, rack it hard and then insert magazine after inspecting that malfunction is cleared.

[@CombatArtTraining]

Wrong. 6:24 "if move tap rack doesn't fix it, I don't fault you on looking at it" Double feeds get cleared by tap rack all the time, especially if you are using gravity the way I demonstrate in the video. If you knew your rifle you would know everything about the condition of the rifle based off of what the charging handle does when you rack it and let it go. You don't. You watch KZbin videos and quote them, you don't have any real experience, and I guarantee you've never taken a class.

[@romadur290]

I am not quoting youtube videos, I am quoting a class. So, wrong there again. I am not talking about thinking what went wrong after tap rack, i am clearly talking about checking first. Always check first what is going on with rifle. All ex-special forces teach it that way. You are right that I watch a lot of videos as well, but just to compare informations from classes with those available online. But every professional always told me to check my weapon first. Always. I have seen many malfunctions made worse because of tap racking something you should not at class all the time. I am not talking about having your rifle turned the wrong way and causing bolt over ride, which is what you ment by "using gravity"... I admire your answer as you are trying to debate and not just fight, but less assumptions based on nothing(because you can not know what experience I have based on one comment, and that is simply a fact) would be nice.

[@CombatArtTraining]

I've had jams since day 1, and I don't know if it is the gun, the mags, or the ammo, but it has happened with new ammo, factory reloaded, home reloaded, and 4 brands of mags.

This is what brought me to your vid - any ideas on what may be happening or how to fix, or what to alter, or what to replace?

[@CombatArtTraining]

You are welcome Sir!

[@EDCKnifeAddiction]

I pull my bolt back all the way amd let it slam shut, but sometimes i see brass and the round doesn't seem to push all the way in. Please help.

[@CombatArtTraining]

@@EDCKnifeAddiction are you talking about during a press check?

[@nfgdominique5294]

Extremely helpful was able to unjam mine no problem

[@SarahPlotnick-z8u]

What do I do if the brass is stuck above the bolt Carrier but under/stuck by the silver firing pin??? Helpppp please do i have to dissemble or will one of these methods work?

[@CombatArtTraining]

@@SarahPlotnick-z8u get a flat head screw driver or paint can opener and get it out. Come take a class sometime soon so you don’t do that again.

[@GymMonster88]

Would you use that screwdriver in a firefight?

[@CombatArtTraining]

Put it on your kit, you could definitely use it

[@enchentez]

Which ARs can you put on Safe with the hammer decocked?

[@CombatArtTraining]

HK416A5 and I think I remember one other

[@m0bnm0n3y]

On my ar pistol the round is stuck like a failure to feed stuck sideways and the charging handle pulls back and forward loose but the bolt is stuck with round jammed up in it idk what to do

[@CombatArtTraining]

go to a hardware store and buy a 5mm stainless steel dowel, put it down the barrel, hit it out, dont shoot yourself

[@brandondang7156]

Would mortaring work for the previous malfunctions too. I want to make it sunken for myself to make it easy to RMEBER.

[@CombatArtTraining]

What was the previous malfunction?

[@brandondang7156]

@@CombatArtTraining for the ones that move tap rack didn’t work (double feed and brass over bolt)

@@brandondang7156 to keep it simple, the only time you need to mortar is when the charging handle won't move.

My ar once cocked will fire once but I have to cock it each time I fire...how can I fix this Issue? I can't fire fast..only one at a time...

[@CombatArtTraining]

Your gas block may be loose, send it to the manufacturer

I've got a PSA AR15 16 rifle that cycles 5.56 fine. But, has issues feeding 223 consistently. Any suggestions?

[@CombatArtTraining]

What magazines are you using?

[@tamront1656]

@@CombatArtTraining Pmags

[@CombatArtTraining]

@@tamront1656 okay the mags should be good. Does it only fail to feed while firing? What ammo is it?

[@tamront1656]

@@CombatArtTraining it chambers the first round. Has feeding issues while cycling. I was using Hornaday frontier and armscor 223. Both 55 grain

[@CombatArtTraining]

@@tamront1656 well that's not a terrible round, check to make sure the buffer is the correct type, and that the gas key isn't loose. Those were problems I had with mine

[@advertisement9195]

So I've got a feeling my problem is the last one. I've never fired my AR but I was trying to eject the live round in it and I couldn't pull the charging handle back any further. Like the last example.

[@CombatArtTraining]

Probably have to mortar it

[@advertisement9195]

@CombatArtTraining so I have no military training whatsoever. What exactly does that mean? Sorry I'm used to 9mm's. Nothing of this caliber.

[@advertisement9195]

Would you recommend I take it to a shop to fix the problem or is this something I can do on my own?

[@advertisement9195]

@CombatArtTraining and if it makes any difference, it's an IWI AR-P. It's short enough to be considered a pistol but long enough I can legally put a forgrip on it.

[@CombatArtTraining]

@@advertisement9195 send me a DM on instagram with a video of the problem

Make sure you only use factory new brass case ammo, clean out the chamber and use a q tip to put just a tiny tiny coating of oil in

[@bigOnion4]

I keep getting failure to extract before new round feeds out of 7.62 7.5 inch BCA upper. Do you think is a gas block issue?

[@CombatArtTraining]

Is it 7.62x39?

[@dragdragon23]

been a while to see a full size AR rifle, like they all seem to stop making them, in favor for the carbine style.

[@CombatArtTraining]

They’re out there, right now CAR15 is the cool retro thing

@@CombatArtTrainingI know they have been bringing out the A1 model (Or other 20-inch barreled models), but it never shows up in my neck of the woods!
