My assumption was the bolt messed with the feed lips of the mag and caused them to spill out into the chamber... Some how?

I cannot work out where they are coming out of the receiver; they seem to be falling out of the bottom.My assumption was the bolt messed with the feed lips of the mag and caused them to spill out into the chamber... Some how?

They're taking the loose fitting of an AK very seriously.

GHK AKs can sometimes double feed due to the, well, double feed format of the feed lips.
But that's odd, usually it's not possible to feed more than two unless severe bolt bounce is at play.

GHK AK only double feed because people stupidly file the feedlips which is not needed and contrary to good running of the platform. The fashion for doing so came from a (I think) Blacksheep Airsoft review of a GHK AK74 years back, where they did it to ease loading of the mags. It then became de rigeur but its actuallly designed like that on purpose to aid in air seal

Yeah the tight feed lips is a compromise because the GHK AK has no nozzle return spring and relies on the BBs to collapse the nozzle

I have one but I've not fielded it yet as its more a collection piece but it's actually very solid and shoots more consistently than I expected
Thanks for the reply mate. Is it consistent with gas mags with decent recoil or are you using Co2 mags, I'll be buying one but not sure if to buy gas or Co2 spare mags.

I'm using gas mags and it' very consistent in power and recoil across a magazine of shots but i have not done any extreme testing with it yet
Thanks mate. All my other gbbrs are gas but for this one I want to go with Co2.
