    Good morning INGO.
    I had some help building a AR15 chambered in 450bushmaster. I went with a SilencerCo receiver set. Took her to the range and im sure I have two issues.

    #1 and most obvious....is the ejection port is too small. It is not a "XL" upper
    Is there anyone local around Indianapolis that could make the port larger, and still keep my upper in good condition?


    #2 I may have to adjust the gas pressure, or work on the feed ramp. But I want to start with the port first.

    Answer to #1- AllenM, Zach at ZR tactical.

    Answer to #2- would do both.

    Observation- it might be the mojo around your avatar. I suggest changing it and going back to the range and try it again.. :stickpoke::cool:

    I'll second what bcannon said. I've seen a Fo-fiddy around here somewhere and we had the same issue. You could always take the Dremel or a file to that ejection port tho... :abused: Just sayin... If you research the port size recommendation it is not very much. YMMV and :abused:.
