ChitownCopper Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) So was wondering if any one knows how to tune the mags that is local ill pay for it or a local gun smith. In chicago by park ridge. Have 140 mags with grams followers and springs in sti tubes. I am getting failure to return to battery ever so often. Its in 9mm and it looks like some times it slams the round in to the ramp to low and does not chamber. I have about 700 rounds through her and still problems. Hi to the forum i have read a ton and have gotten a ton of useful info. Edited February 27, 2017 by ChitownCopper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi to the forum i have read a ton and have gotten a ton of useful info. I have been working through the exact same issue. I suggest you first try to isolate a specific mag it happens with. If it is one or maybe two mags then they might need work. But if all mags do it chances are it's more a gun issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChitownCopper Posted February 28, 2017 Author Share Posted February 28, 2017 So 400 rounds at the range yesterday and sti mags ran great. MBX on the other hand was awful jam after jam after failure to return to battery. Almost every round. Emailed them but have uet to contact me back. For a 160 dollar mag it should have no problems at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
