last night i dremmeled about half a mm out of one mag catch. worked like a charm and still seats in my scar proper aswell. a few weeks ago i made a decision to hold off on getting a new pistol and replace all my mags so if i would have screwed something up, it wouldnt have made me too mad.

my original thought was to grind a bit out of the magazine catch, i just figured after a bit more thought that sanding the gas port mightv been a better idea.
glad i took a step back and gathered some opinions,
so thanks.

oh and ya i did one mag with blue sealant, then on a different did a thin coat of rubber sealant/cement, the blue stuff didnt seem to be thick enough in my opinion, same with the glue i tried it on one mag first to make sure it would just blow glue out everywhere or something and theyv survived a full day of gaming plus the most plinking iv done since september.

and about the mags sitting higher with no upper receiver, in both of those pics i had just let the mag click into position and took the picture as low as it would sit. i still havent figured out how this happened, and how it went from just a couple mags, to all of them. i checked my entire m4 to make sure nothing was bent, and installed properly. everything was fine.
im pretty upset after gaming the scar last week and it failing so much, now i fix my m4 and it feels and shoots x100 harder than the scar.
