Why is my new AR15 firing twice every time I pull the trigger?

I finally got around to test firing my new rifle. Something is wrong: It is firing two bullets everytime I pull the trigger.
Suspect I may not have assembled the trigger correctly. What do you think?

People will ask for pictures to see. Break the barrel over and take a couple with the hammer forward and back. It’ not easy to get a good picture there though.

Either that or its a Rare Breed lol

Definitely need to see some photos… smh, lucky :joy:

If you built it, did you buy a binary trigger? You need a non-binary (not as in Trans :rofl:) trigger, or standard one. Binary fires when you pull, and again when you release it.

Probably have the hammer spring in backwards.

I’m more curious in the steps of the bullets firing

Does it literally fire two rounds per trigger pull, or does it fire one round, and lets go of the trigger, and another goes flying out…

Curious

like with the trigger still pulled back Or on release if fires again?

Will take a look and get back with you, Thanks

That all it takes???

I’m afraid we might not ever get to see any pictures…

Yep. Not only can you get doubles but also lots of other malfunctions including fail to fire.

When assembling the firing control group, it goes together like this.

Sounds like the disconnector is stuck in the groove on the trigger.
