Was this a used kit? One of the problems, besides a certain brand ammo that functions well, is that rimfires are not made to be dry fired. Since rimfire firing pins hit the edge of the cartridge, firing without a round in the chamber causes the firing pin to hit the chamber edge. Enough of this and you will have a small ding that doesn't allow a round to chamber or when fired and the round expands a little, the cartridge won't pull out of the chamber account that small ding holding on. I have taken some .22's and removed that ding allowing the gun to cycle properly. Check for that ding if it is used.
.22 conversion unit AR
I'm not really familiar with blogs, but here goes. I bought a targetmaster .22 conversion at the July gunshow in Jackson. Does not work properly. shoots two to four times then fails to eject... always a live round in chamber and empty stuck in receiver or stove-piped. Shooting a Bushmaster ORC. Have tried three magazines and four types of ammo; and cleaned and oiled the unit. Any more suggestions? I guess I'll call the mfg. tomorrow
