Pro-Mag 10 round magazine
« on: March 09, 2022, 09:11:42 PM »
Picked up one of these new on EBay. Unfortunately it jams …Visually it looks good. Can’t figure out why it doesn’t work properly. Anyone have experience or suggestions?

Does the mag follower slide smoothly within the magazine?
How does the width of the Pro-Mag feed lips compare with your OEM mags?
Just some thoughts...

The spring does seem a bit sticky…..I left the mag full of ammo, maybe that would help?

I don't think leaving the Mags full will help (nor hurt) anything. If the follower is "sticky" in any way. it must be remedied. Empty the ammo from the mag. Take a long pencil and press (eraser end) on the mag follower. It should ride on the magazine walls silky smooth. If there is any grittiness, it must be cleaned or polished. I've had to disassemble and sand (600-800 grit) interior magazine walls and/or followers before to fix "sticky" mags.
