Reinforced WE nozzle (SCAR)

[JerryMcGoulBerry]

Do these exist? I heard they break like crazy. I broke mine after running about 200 shots though it brand new. I already ordered a new one, and I feel like I'm going to be ordering more. And are the SCAR ones compatible with M4/416 ones?

No, they don't

And stop overfilling your mags, you won't get any other broken nozzle.

no. Open bolt scar/pdw nozzles are different than open bolt m4 nozzles.

been working on a OB SCAR the last two weeks, i can tell you that over filling the mag is not the only reason why the loading ram brakes.
1- the gap between the feed lips that the ram passes through it way too narrow for the amount of play in the bolt. if the bolt is canted or off set by as little as 0.1mm left or right, it will strike the back of the feed lips when returning to battery.
2- if the mag shell is warped and the mag internals isn't seated square, then the feed lips will sit to one side or the other ahead of the loading ram. again the ram strikes the feed lips and snaps off.

i don't know why WE made the gap between the feed lips to such a tight clearance, when the bolt it self has so much slop. to fix the issue i had to make new guides for the bolt, as well as widen the gap between the feed lips from .122 (inches) to .125 (inches). i also had to put some large chamfers on either side of the gap. still with a misaligned mag, the ram still catches.

basically, an over filled mag is indeed an issue, but the bigger issue is improper tolerances, or bad engineering.

It's not only a question of mag issue, but also a question of improper weapon discharge. People take their mags off and that's it. There's always a BB left in the chamber that need to be removed with the proper discharging methods.

People also tend to pull on the charging handle and letting it go back it place like Vietnam. The proper way of discharging a weapon is by controlling your bolt carrier when making sure your chamber is empty instead of having your bolt carrier slamming the left BB at full speed, and by there snapping off your nozzle in 2.
