Hiya mate, hopefully this should help… i couldn’t tell you where I got them I’m afraid, they were just laying in the spare parts box.

Unfortunately it happened on my first proper skirmish with it. All seemed fine when I tested it out in the garden, but I only used the mag it came with. I’ve had new mags sat in their packaging until only recently and I then found out these started to misfeed. I have 4 mags total, the one it came with in the box seemed to feed the best, the rest were hit & miss, the one in the video in particular was the worst. So either I’ve been unlucky with my mags, my hop feed tube is slightly too short or my mag catch is not seating the mags in far enough. I’d guess the latter.

I’m pressing the mag against my knee

So I think I’ve found a solution to my issue. After some further tinkering, I found that putting a rubber washer underneath the mag insert allows the insert to raise up just a fraction once tightened down to the case. Now all mags feed flawlessly. hopefully this will help others.

IMG_9283.MOV Feeding/magazine help… Hi gents, hoping you can help. I have an issue with feeding on some particular mags, some are better than others but the issue can still occur on the goods mags. As you can see on the video, it doesn’t like to feed until I press the bottom of the mag forwards. It’s a rather intermittent issue but the video shows it at its worst. I think it has something to do with the alignment of the hop unit entry tripping the bb release on the mag but I wondered if anyone has had similar issues and how they solved it. I’ve reassembled multiple times and can’t see anything out of the ordinary. any help or suggestions appreciated ??
