I finally got around to completing my TGO AR today. :woohoo:  Upper and lower receiver were completed in the spring, then we moved, and I ran out of money. Got the barrel and hand guards in a week ago, and today was the big day.

 

At first, it would fire one round, cycle the bolt and load a second round, but then wouldn't fire the second round. I discovered that if I put it to safe and back to fire it would fire off the next round and then not fire again. Repeating the safety of/on made the next round fire.

 

Took it all apart and discovered that when cocking the hammer with the trigger pulled back, the disconnector wouldn't reset. I manually pulled the hammer back to cocked and pushed it forward about 100 times and it eventually loosened up. Works perfectly now.

 

All I need now is a scope and it'll be all done.

I have NEVER had that happen. I wonder if your disconnector spring is upside down. Fat side goes down.

I read that that was a possibility, so I took the trigger out and checked. It was installed correctly. :shrug:

I had the same symptoms and it was the spring. The guy doing the youtube video did some sleight of hand that I missed.

Sometimes one will be listed in the for sale section.

My set is still sitting in the safe, untouched.  I'll decide what to build with them one of these days.   Some very nice looking builds in the thread !
