Jam up ain't really a glowing review when talking about a rifle.

Yeah you got a good point there
I’ll assure you this is far from the old Rem 742 jambOmatic

[Outback]

I love a 742
Remove that shitty plastic dust cover and keep it dry, it'll never jam. The 742s are similar to the m16/m4s. Oil is their enemy. Keep em dry and use compressed air to clean it. Don't use any more oil than you can put on a Qtip swab.

[Deadeye48]

With 742 it was a timing issue more than a oil issue though that did cause problems
What Ive learned about them is that if you had a good one it couldnt be beat but if you had a bad one you looked for someone else to own it
Ive never heard of a jamming issue with the BAR....ever

No I wasn't dissing on the BAR at all.
They are very reliable.

I didn’t take it you were dissing on it
Everyone knows the BAR is a tried and true firearm
I think the only way to get them to fail is to be just plain abusive to them
