Alright, this one's going to blow your mind. I have a magpul PTS M4. When I insert a "P-mag" (or any mag) into the magazine well, after about 2 minutes of walking or running around, the mag will just fall out. Now i've tried to fix the problem like I would with an actual AR system, but the magazine release is different, I can't just push the release button all the way in and tighten the other side. and to be honest, I dont know a shi* or two about airsoft guns. (every single one i've ever tried to work on or took apart broke) So if one of you more schooled airsoft techies could lend a help here i'd be grateful. I hope this post made sense, i'm speaking out of anger. :evil:
Might want to try slapping in the mag.
I do. Pretty hard slaps. but I can still pull the magazine out of the well without even engaging the release button.
Is there alot of side to side play? This will allow the mag to fall off the mag catch and drop from the rifle.

There's an enormous amount of magazine sway all the way around the mag well, even with the mags that are designed for this rifle.
and i'm also aware that that's what makes it fall out. not trying to sound like a smartass or a jackass, i just want to know how to fix the issue. Oh well I guess i'll just get creative! :twisted:
Ive heard when magwells are too big, like in the VFC PDW, some people put the velcro tabs inside the magwell. I've heard that it will give mags the extra tightness, and its very cost efficient.

I agree, the soft side (loop) of Velcro is a great way to take up some of that slop. "Mag Drops" might be an issue but you should be pulling your mags out of your rifle anyways when reloading.
