I attended an Appleseed this past weekend and experienced problems with two of my GI mags.
They are an AdventureLine and an Okay with the aluminum followers. In each case the last round in the mag would jam the action. Pulling out the mag and placing one round in it, I saw that the round was halfway out from under the feed lip. As soon as I placed the mag in the rifle the round would pop out. If I tested another "good" mag the round would stay completely under the lip.
Is this a failure of the mag follower? I did not notice any spreading of the feed lips...just that the round was not contained fully underneath.
How do I fix this? New followers? If so, which ones??
Thanks for the help.
