Has anyone else had issue with mags going in? I try using the 15rd mags that came with my Gen14 G19 and they will not slide into the magwell unless you press the magazine release button. I have an older 33rd mag that slides in no problem. Any ideas?

i have lowers from another manufacture (wild web speculation thinks that they are the same manufacture). the mag catch is sharp and after using one mag and inserting and ejecting it about 20 times it now accepts any and all of my glock mags. if you look at the right side of the mag you are using i am willing to bet you will see a small deformity on the top lip of the "mag catch slot" on that mag.

after about 20 times i became so easy i could just use finger pressure on the bottom (yours may need more times). it doesn't appear to have done any serious damage (but i did figure i was sacrificing a mag). after this "break in period" i can now insert all of my mags with just finger pressure on the bottom of the mag.

all of my mags are gen 4, magpul, and ets mags.
