Just purchased a kit south of the border that came with 2 mags for my son, we put it together tonight, looks great. But the mags, I think they are pro mag 9/22? will not fit in easily, I mean super tight fit. It is the newer mag not old stock where the rear of the mag is filed at 45 degree angle 1/8" so its not the extention that is making it tight. tried the butler creek plus the ruger magazines and work perfectly. When we finally did get the pro mag in wiht a little force, bugger to get out. That last inch to get it in is where it is sticking, so way to tight. anyone else encounter this??? so frustrating :mad:
 
not sure man mine fit nice out of the box. I noticed that you sort of have to put it in at an angle then push it back into the plunger, and it locks in good. also if its a full mag make sure to lock the bolt back before putting the mag in. Other than that I think someone else had that issue and it was because the receiver wasnt pushed all the way down or something, hope it works out for ya
 
Mmmm i wonder if anyone has successfully modded their 9/22s to consistently feed right when inserted with the bolt forward?

I only ponder this out loud because i was thinking of getting some 9/22s myself
 
My advise is to buy a box of Federal "blue box" 22s and load, shoot, unload, repeat. I posted this same question a while ago and I found you just have to keep inserting the mags and removing them and you will find it gets easier with time. I started without the "covers" but then when I found the technique I put the covers on and it works much easier now. They don't drop out by any means but they do go in and out much easier. I also find it's easier with the bolt back. TC
