A question for the mag guru's if you please
Picked up my "New" early production 20" Upper with factory mag today, she has had a whopping 12 rounds down the pipe since new and isn't even broke in yet.
The guy I bought it from sighted it in and has dropped 2 deer since he bought it new. He sold it to me because it ruined too much meat according to him.
(no I did not point out that one should not shoot a deer in the ass, nor shoot fawn
)
Anyway, ran through a function check and then wet cycling and then decided to see how she feeds. Feeds and ejects flawless when cycled by hand but tears the heck out of the brass.
The top corners of the half moon cut out on the front of the mag are like razors and cut deep into the brass as it's being picked up and fed, anyone see any potential problems with rounding off and smoothing those 2 corners for a bit more clearance ?
Now on to the black follower thread and my journey of trying to reinvent the wheel with some hi cap mags .......
