Torogi Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 what kind of tube do you have? tuned or stock? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superdude Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 can't diagnose it without more information. give us some detail on where the round is hanging up. what your bullet is, OAL etc. it's all in the details. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donnyglock Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 I bet the follower is not tuned and the last round activates the slide stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigstick0000 Posted December 29, 2011 Author Share Posted December 29, 2011 donnyglock, you are right, the last round doesn't move and it activates the slide stop. untuned, sti mag, about 1.25 OAL, 38 SC, bolen base pad.

donnyglock Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 You can go to Brazos web sight and go to magazine articles. There is one on tuneing the mag followers to not lock the slide. Hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aircooled6racer Posted December 29, 2011 Share Posted December 29, 2011 Hello: Or you can grind off the slide stop ridge so it will not activate on the follower. That way you can just change the slide stop if you want it to activate the slide stop with the follower Thanks, Eric Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
