This thing is a ton of fun. Definitely make sure you file your extractor groove before gluing your liner into the barrel, as it's really difficult to do well once it's glued in. I'll be reprinting a barrel to follow my own advice. Speaking of best practices, if you use the threaded barrel, print at an angle. I printed vertical and my can was too heavy and broke the plastic threads off, hence the exposed liner at the tip.

If you'd like to build one, hardware kits are available at my username dot com, and ready to ship including all laser cut parts. Kits are BYOBarrel, so you either need an RS22, or any length chambered barrel liner.

The handguard shouldnt be pushing the barrel. The barrel should be firmly against the upper receiver and just held in place by handguard. What barrel are you using?

I think the problem ist that the bolt hits the extension before the handle can lock
