[QUOTE="RockyMtnUT, post: 2619753, member: 40704"] I’ll disagree the machine work is fine but the quality needs addressed on the sharpness of the lip where the brass rides. 3 out of three mags would scratch the crap out of the brass and was rough. There was no burr. Just to sharp, that it would bite the brass. A scotch brite pad or similar with a minute or two smoothed it out so they fed much better. Mine were not an alignment issue. It just needs to be done before it goes to anodize. These are not scratches tumbling will take out in anyway shape or form. Customer service was ok. I tried to order a mag a few weeks back and gave up waiting for nick to get back so I ordered from elsewhere, then sent an email to forget the mag. After waiting a day for a link to pay for product I gave up. I fully understand the need for tolerances so mag will release or drop out. I choose to add a piece of tape so the front of mag doesn’t hang lower than rear. We are talking small amount but also dampened rattles. It tightened up tolerances in front of mag since nothing is there to keep it up anyway. It’s usually a two hand operation with the right thumb pressing down latch and left grabbing mag unless your on the ground prone. Glad the op will get it figured out. That usually happens when someone take issues to a public forum. Honestly, I like most their stuff other than the bubble on rings. It’s clean. I just hope they take it as constructive and look into it. And please throw a dang Allen in the clear package when you’re sealing up the parts. 😉 [/QUOTE]
