Hello All, I posted this back in June and have since swapped out parts as suggested.
https://www.theoutdoorstrader.com/threads/garand-ftf-help.2230524/
Nothing seems to work but what I wish I had realized earlier is that the intermittent failure to feed is clearly being caused by the cartridge rubbing against the rib on the left side of the receiver (pics below). I should mention this is a barreled receiver from the CMP.
The obviously solution is to hone and polish the receiver rib. Is there something I'm not thinking about as far as a solution?
Thanks in advance for your comments and advice.
Notice the rub marks on the spent cartridge cases
