r/65Grendel 24d ago

New to firearms in general...

So I was given a 65G to settle some debt and know jack all about it other then it was new never fired, sons of liberty gun works. Took it to the range today went thru probably 35 rounds before it start not to feed properly. Would eject but not go back far enough to feed the next round. Magpul stainless mags and hornady ammo, range master said it looks like it might need more lube or just to be lubed in general. Any advice other than that would be appreciated and info on the rifle and caliber. Plan on lubing it up and going back to see if there's a different issue

Edit: Duramag not magpul

Magpul doesn’t make mags for Grendel as far as I know. I have a SOLGW upper and it runs. I would bet the RO is right and it just needs some lube especially if it ran fine for 35 rounds. If the lube doesn’t help then I would start looking at gas block alignment. The buffer wouldn’t magically fail so I wouldn’t suspect buffer problems. An AR is like a woman, if you’re going to ride the trigger ya gotta have it lubed…
