ETS 40 round Glock Mag Jam

[mgkrs]

Heard they were better than the 30s, which jammed for me in the middle, but I'm also hitting a jam on the last 2 rounds in my ETS 40 rounders. Seeing this in 2 different mags even after cleaning:

 

 

Saw another thread where someone hit this and attributed it to polymer coatings, but these are plated (though I have had polymer coated rounds in this mag before). Ran into this thread on reddit where someone suggested a fix by cutting a nub off the follower: 

 

 

Seems to be working better now, but that nub seems to be some sort of follower stop, and now one of my followers sticks out high like this - doesn't seem to be an issue hand-cycling, but I also don't have LRBHO:

 

 

 

Disappointed these 40s are having issues after hearing good things about them, but hopefully this fix will do the trick. Might be worth trying on the ETS 30s I still have, but the glock factory mags I have still work the best out of all of these.

My 40 round mags will do that when they get dirty. I clean them with soapy water and a brush, dry them, and put a coat of silicone spray in them. They work fine again for about 800 rounds or so,,, I use autocomp powder,,,
