What you have done here certainly helps. For me I found the issue to be the magazine, but more so due to burrs in the track for the thumb stud. This greatly increased friction on the thumb stud and made feeding of the next round inconsistent. Getting rid of those burrs and polishing the contact areas between the thumb stud and magazine greatly improved performance.

The magazine finished it off for me, but yes, it does improve how the bullets feed, mostly by changing the angle at which they feed. I am not sure the polishing does anything more than give you a visual cue that the mag has been modified so you can see it more quickly vs an old one maybe, but yeah I polished the top of mine as well. Don't round those corners too much though, if you grind too much off instead of fixing the problem you cause the problem in reverse as the angle of the feed will be too steep.

Green springs will help.

@garybloom3304 thanks for the tip brother. Those a very inexpensive so I think I will give them a try as well. That is something I didn't know, so I really appreciate you for leaving this comment.
