Sounds like you need to tune your AR and your attitude. Heres a chart to help out w/ the AR. Good luck w/ the other.

Awwwww, did I hurt your feelers. . . .

Did it hurt a wee bit when that hot brass hit your little ear muff?

I was only speculating as to why you were having problems guy, I'm a lefty and I've never been hit, obviously some folks are bothered by it and it results from being too close to the port.

no it didn't hurt, it was just a distraction. As mentioned it is a short stock and I was apparently too close. I will endeavor to improve my form. and no it takes more than an ignorant remark to hurt my feelers, don't worry about that.
