[QUOTE="rhodesbe, post: 1799907, member: 2415"] I don't claim to know what I'm saying on this stuff. Take this for what its worth, but: 1. Don't discount the mags being the problem. Try a new AO 15 round mag, not a 'new to you' surplus or chinky chicom repro. 2. Don't discount the ammo being the problem. Even 'well respected' carbine ammo like Aguilla and Privi is reported to be an issue all over the internet. The benchmark appears to be Remington 110gr ball. If it has issues running that, then it isn't the ammo's fault. It appears that FTF/FTE/misfeed issues are common with M1 Carbines. When you have a combo of old worn gun with old worn mags popping off potent fresh ammo the timing can be wonky. [/QUOTE]
