Colt mags, ASC mags 32 rd run perfectly in my Colt 9mm mag lowers, even the 80% AR-9
"Colt" lowers work great, SMF Tact upper, ToolCraft gen-2 bolt, Macron Armory Guaranteed
to feed barrels, Macron Armory Dead blow buffer, all is good...
Nope no new ones. Haven't shot any but the actions are like, "parts bin parts, thrown together for the lack of better words, mostly all the rifles / actions laying around here are older ones short actions, 223 / 308 bolt face. a few long action rifles, they are "smooth", I'll just say this the...
Simple....dont put all "your eggs in one basket"
comes to mind, same can be said with guns, ammo, anything, what if you just can't get to that central spot? Or some one else has beat you to that central spot.? Then you have disasters fire, water, mother nature, etc

Pretty much use MightyArmory seat dies for the 9mm / 45acp...

Try "HK" mags, it may prevent the issues, as 4g64loser mention also if the ammo is not consistent, you will have issues, loads too light and is the gun in "Spec", the MP5 built here on a HK parts kit (LSC flat) has had none of these issues, now, using HK mags, haven't tried any others so don't...
