Hey guys,
I have a Ghillie-built MP5 and I find that I have to wrap on the bottom of the mag to get it to seat when the bolt is closed. Is this normal for an MP5? I busted one of the feed lips / ears / whatever off of another HK mag possibly doing it this way and don't want to throw another $60 down the toilet.
I keep a loaded mag in it but don't want to chamber a round for safety reasons since it's my home defense gun.
When the bolt is back, they go in on an angle and I pull back (like an AK mag) for the mag catch to click, but only if I smack the bottom of it with some umph it'll catch with the bolt closed.
