Lugerdoc,

The problem is strictly with feeding, not with extraction. I have not done any polishing, as I have done, for example, with my FAL. These are old parts and should be well worn in. I considered the possibility that the mag latch was worn because when a mag is installed, there is a tiny bit of play up and down. But I suspect that this play is normal and that the mag is sitting high enough in the frame. I will be surprised if the problem doesn't stem from the recoil spring being too strong to allow the bolt to clear the rear of the mag and allow the round to pop up. Anyway, the springs are ordered and we will see.

Thanks,

Vboy
