    Stubborn magazines?

    I'm in the process of switching out all my plain PMags for ones with U.B.B. (Ultimate bullet button) installed, so I can reload with one hand.

    Problem is, I have two or three stubborn mags that have a tight fit and don't fall free when the button is disengaged. Making my other hand having to remove it.

    Is there any way to solve this? Like lubing the magazine? Or is that not recommended?

    I've tried tilting the rifle quickly to kind of shake the magazine off, but it rarely happens. Any pointers?

    I would deff not recommended lubing the mags, just find where the wear is on the mag and file a tiny bit at a time untill it drops free

      Either file or lightly sand (320-400grit) the tight areas of the PMag.

        That punk pulled a Glock 7 on me. You know what that is? It's a porcelain gun made in Germany. Dosen't show up on your airport X-ray machines, here, and it cost more than you make in a month.

          also it sounds like your rifle would like Emags instead of Pmags

            How do I know where the tight areas are? I see no marks / signs of friction.

            It's a LWRC M6A3. PMags should work fine.

              hm thats weird. insert a mag, if it wiggles side to side, then the sides are fine, if it wiggles front and back then then the front and rear of the mag is fine.
