The bolt carrier works fine on Magpul new mags, its just the old GI mags (that I have it fails on). I have a relatively new JP. Since I`m forced to compete in other states with these old GI 30 round mags It looks like I'm going become a GI mag mechanic. Other the other hand I can probably find an old Marine Armorer and bribe him with some spirits to refurbish my old GI mags.
In Mass if you look hard enough you can find some unused 30 rd mags in their original package (I saw some dated 1985) they go about $50 to $60 each. They are date stamped right on the mag Most folks here scarf them up for home defense, since if you shoot some one with a 30 rd mag you will go to the jail before the criminal if you did it with a 30 rder and you cannot prove its pre 1994,
