Does it cause bolt over-rides?
Bolt Override vs Brass over bolt. Explain difference please?
bolt over ride=the bolt jams a live round up into the upper near the gas tubehttp://www.tacticalfanboy.com/wp-con..._n-430x286.jpg
b.o.b. = spent brass fails to eject, gets stuck above the bolt in the upper receiver.http://warriortalknews.typepad.com/....81d5970c-500wi

As many know, brass over bolt is where a round gets stuck on top the bolt, pressed against the top of the upper and CH.
I would imagine bolt over brass is one of those malfunctions where the bolt starts to strip the round from the mag but loses positive control of the round causing the bolt to jump over the back of the case thus wedging the round against the feed ramps at or about mid case... common in over gassed rifles.
As many of you know, I teach two types of malfunctions... easy and fucked up...
Thanks, making sure I understood the terms..
They still should have the same method of clearing; attempting to dump the mag, then using your finger or a field expedient tool to finger bang the bolt and pull it back by grabbing the face of the bolt through the ejection port or through the mag well and pulling it back, allowing the rounds or brass to fall.
leatherman actually makes a tool for that. http://fonarik.tomsk.ru/blog/wp-cont...t_Override.jpg
