All AR style shotguns are known to be finicky when it comes to ammo, it’s just the nature of the beast.
Here are our helpful tips to improve the performance of your upper:
Use the shortest 2.5-inch ammo you can find, we have found Fiocchi works the best. Stay away from Browning/Sellier & Bellot (we are not saying they make bad ammo; it just did not cycle properly during our testing due to the shells being slightly longer).
Low brass works better.
Use cartridges that have a smooth outer shell Vs. ribbed. Slugs worked the best.
Use some dry lube inside the magazine. Keep the upper clean and well lubed.
Under no circumstances should you use any ammunition other than 2.5-inch .410 shotgun shells with this conversion kit.
