[QUOTE="HiredHand, post: 4195644, member: 2469"] I think, but could be wrong that the GSG magazines shipped with the Marvel conversions are modified before they are sent out. I purchased new GSG magazines from a different source than FCW/Marvel and had a few issues with them on the first range trip. I can’t recall where I got the idea from, but I believe that I clipped 4 coils off the magazine springs and that made all the difference. I may one day mess with trying to tune up some of my Colt Ace magazines, but I have more fun shooting the conversion kit than toying with sheet metal feed lips. I should order more GSG 1911-22 magazines! This document by Bob Marvel was really helpful a few years ago when I was having some issues with my conversion not running consistently.
