Resorted to join as I've drawn a blank everywhere else I've tried to find the answer to my issue.
I'm from the UK so our gun laws mean I can't own a live fire M1. I've managed to privately purchase a Hudson built M1 that cycles rounds, can be fully field stripped and as far as I'm aware is almost a like-for-like duplicate for a real M1 in moving parts etc.
The issue that I'm having is, an empty enbloc will not eject after the last round cycles out.
I can eject the empty clip manually using the clip-release on the left side. If I don't push a full enbloc in it *will* spring out.
As far as I can tell, the clip release spring shouldn't be an issue (have ordered a new one to be safe), and I can't see it being the clip eject spring as when manually ejecting it will *ping* out.
I've bought a repro M1 Field Manual, and watched as many YouTube guides as I can regarding stripping, maintenance and reassembly but still can't get an automatic empty enbloc ejection.
Any ideas? Can anyone point me to a thread where this may already be covered?
Cheers, Andy.
