Hi guys, this should be a simple problem to solve, but my m15 wont feed a MAGmag without forcing or holding the magazine in.

Is The mag locking in to the mag catch?>> If it is a little foam on the gear box it will push the mag forward into the feed nozzle on your hop,. Worked for me

I had an issue with my spr... do you have an aftermarket barrel or have you taken the barrel out of the hop-up unit? I found that my hop-up bucking was deformed from guarder when i bought it and was causing the bbs not to feed properly and sometimes jam

Well, i didnt recenlty work on the gun or anything. I think its the mag catch as well. No aftermarket outer barrel or anything. I did take pf the hop up and dissassembled it for lubing/cleaning becuase the hop up didnt work at all, until i cleaned it. After that it then i had the mag feeding problems. I have every single part of the hop up unit in the right place. Didn't lose anything w/so ever. No jamming or anything, just dry firing until i force the MAGmag in. The mag catch has also been disassemble but also put back in properly and tightened to the max. Any more details needed?

ALRIGHT! So I tried my friends CA m15 cqb top reciver with its whole hopup unit in place and tried it with my lower reciever and my mechbox etc. It work'd flawlessly, therefore cancels the suspision of the magwell/magcatch. My new hypothesis, is that its got something to do with the hopup unit. Maybe the feeding tube on hop-up isnt touching the mag's bb hole because i bent the hopup unit up a bit? I dunno help me out here, maybe even get a new hopup unit?

take your gun over to AEX if possible and have andrew check it out, ot just get a guarder hop-up and bucking - works fantastic on my spr. take the barrel and hop-up out (still intact) and look through the barrel to see if the bucking is out-of-round where the feed is, if you need help with the install let me know. I'll pm you my number
