Echelon cycling

[adrian8500]

Have a brand new echelon that I took delivery of, long story short took the mag disconnect out now it won’t cycle any rounds, has anyone had this issue ??

no, what do you mean it's not cycling?

 

[Skilly]

describe, "wont cycle"?

Slide action, without a bullet it goes forward back normally but when I add ammunition rack it back and let it go fast, it doesn’t fully go into action

so not going into battery, I don't think it has anything to do with the MD, is the COG seated all the way? is the recoil spring seated properly? I would take the cog out and back in and the recoil spring and barrel out and back in to make sure its all together properly

Did this already to be honest, it’s sat how it’s supposed to be recoil spring is right, it’s my 6th pistol so I’m not just “new” just starting to think this thing just doesn’t work how it’s supposed to

did it work before you took parts out? the echelon is pretty simple its hard to even imagine what it would be if not those things. take the barrel out and see if the ammo plunks

I used a snap cap at my lgs and it worked fine got home didn’t even care to try it went straight to take off Cali compliant bs then tried it, didn’t go into battery

did you put an optic on? I believe if the screw is too long it may hit the extractor. If the extractor can't move it will do exactly this, I did this on a glock once.

UPDATE, so I did a full strip realized that my ejector spring didn’t come out nor would it, through further research blue loctite spewed onto it and bonded. Thus being the failure to battery, don’t be me guys. Lol

Much respect for posting the mistake so if it happens to someone else they know what to look for.
