| I just bought some new Labelle mags with tan magul followers and ranger plates. I loaded the mag with 30 rounds. With the bolt closed (forword) I can not get the mag to catch. If I remove 2 rounds to 28 the mag will catch and I can cycle the bolt and chamber a round. I bought 4 mags and this happens with all of them. My older mags have green followers and I do not have this problem. Does anybody have this problem. |
I heard that this is a common thing with this follower/floorplate combination. Why people would want to convert a 30rd mag to a 28rd mag in the name of "bling-bling" is something that's lost on me, plus if it's a good quality USGI magazine adding this crap amounts to nothing more than fixing something that ain't broke. Anyway to answer your question yes, this combination sometimes reduces your magazine capacity. |
Seems to be a common problem. Try a couple of green followers in them, that may fix you up. LOK |
