Werid M4 AEG magazine problem.

[Eien]

Quite odd. Everytime I insert a magazine and shoot, the magazine falls out instantly. As well, its quite easy to pull out the magazine without pressing the magazine catch. I believe its the vibration when the gun is shooting, it shakes the magazine catch and makes the magazine all loose. Not sure how to fix it but any solutions?

I'm using KA M4 low caps with a KA M4. The magazine feeds great and there is no problems with them. It does this to all of my 6 magazines.

have you tried tightening the mag catch on the gun?

there is a mod where you shave a half mm from the raised portion of ka mags to get them to work. it has been a while so i suggest you search it and read it for yourself before doing any cutting.

Yup. That was the first thing I did, didn't work. It was tighten pretty good.

@venture - I'll search it up and see. Thanks

An easier thing to do if your mags are metal - flare out the top of the hole where the mag catch clips into the mag, just take pliers and bend the top of the square out. This will ensure a better connection between your magcatch and your mag. You only need to do this slightly, just test it with your gun before you flare it out more. If you flare it out too much you can always hammer it back till its flat. I did this with my own KA metal mags and they work great now.

KA guns have always had a problem with the magwell and mags something to do with the reciever or something i dunno but its happened to all of my KA m4s, Owned the first gen KA M4 which was the M4 CQBA3 and it had a little issue with it, after that i bought a larue 9 inch and it stil had some issues but they work well with other mags, had trouble feeding certain mags they work amazingly well with my CA midcaps

Thanks for the idea, I may try that.

Its kinda funny how their own mags won't fit into their own guns.. quite strange. I'm gonna try PMAGs.. hopefully there will be no issues.
