OP, definitely rule out a mag related issue first. Getting extra Mec-Gar mags is wise. You've got some great advice from the forum's Lugermeisters. Start eliminating each possible culprits. Perhaps you already mentioned this but did you remove and clean the gunk out of and around the H/O? That place seems to be a garbage magnet, which imped function.
Lastly, my brother-in-law was an F15 pilot. I recall him showing me one when they first came out in 1976(?). I flew in the, now old, SH-3's in the USN in the early 70s.
