Is there a way to get these guns to feed every shell without issue? I have 3 mags and each time I try to use it there is at least one round in each mag that binds and I have to drop the mag to clear it. I have tried 2(3/4) and 3".

What I am I missing.
 
Some folks have mentioned polishing up the internals a bit to get it going.

You could sell it and buy a Valtro PM5 ;) its 100% reliable
 
Theres a thread showing how to modify the follower to make it near 100% reliable, can't seem to find it even tho I searched. I am sure someone will find it and post it up
 
ON TOPIC.

I've tryed a few things but nothing has really stopped it.

I put 100 round through the gun today and it only happened once on the first round of the first mag.

I'm starting to wonder if the rim of the upper round is getting stuck behind the rim of the lower one.

this might be the issue, not sure. out of my 5 mags, 2 had jams on the 1st round. I think it was because when I slapped the mag in, the top round tilted up, and when I tried to close the action, it got jammed at the top of receiver/barrel.

Maybe some filing there will help. here is a vid of when it happened:

I remember a thread about putting a hump or a bulge in the middle of the follower, I'm thinking that that would let the shell pivot, unsticking the overlapped rims when you chamber a shell.

Need to find the thread, I believe it was about getting 6 rounds in the mag.
 
I will need more range time to figure out if I need to mod the follower or what the issue is with some of my mags, im not sure adding the dent would help or make it worse
